Clicked on the NetworkMangler status widget and picked my wireless AP. Provided the password and connected right up.
I have a fairly old laptop with the BCM4306 chipset and my F18 install is fairly "pristine" but I do have a wired connection to the same laptop and did a "yum update" so the kernel is current. I previously had F16 working on the same laptop and still have a working install of F17 on another partition set.
