I'm using Fedore Core 3, too.  Did you set your
wireless router to broadcast its SSID?  I could never
connect unless Broadcasting was enabled.

Also, do you have another ethernet device on your
system?  On the motherboard, perhaps?  My system
doesn't and my PCI wireless card, a D-Link 520 (series
E1), gets recognized as eth0.  If you do and aren't
using it, use BIOS to disable it.

What are you using for WEP decoding?  wpa_supplicant? 
If yes, you'll need to have wpa_supplicant up and
running before or at the same time as driverloader for
your card to connect and authenticate.
