Description Paolo Bonzini 2011-09-29 15:45:35 UTC 
/etc/init.d/network's support for wireless is unfortunately a trainwreck, due to NetworkManager's bug 741984 and bug 742292.

Since I have little hopes of seeing those bugs fixed, I would very much like a simple way to disable probing for _any_ kind of wireless connection at boot time.
Comment 1 Fedora End Of Life 2013-04-03 14:23:07 UTC 
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 19 development cycle.
Changing version to '19'.

(As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 19 development
cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 19 End Of Life. Thank you.)

See:

For NetworkManager, there's currently no separate boottime and runtime.
