Here is the ifconfig listing

This one is the wifi nic:

Here is the content of ifcfg-wlan-id-00:11:25:2f:5c:1e
As you can see it thinks that the wired card is a wifi nic. The whole thing
works, but I think that it makes for delays and other weirdness.

I did find these two in the /etc/sysconfig/hardware directory, the first one
is the wifi nic.
