192.168.1.1 Router .

Eth0 is not available in this application.

are you averse to the official documentation?

http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/12/html/User_Guide/index.html

Perhaps you should start there, especially the section on connecting to
the Internet/NetworkManager/Wireless

Hi there,

Go into your desktop of choice, and right click on the network manager
icon, then edit connections and edit the wireless connection you want
available in runlevel 3

then tick the box to "make available to all users"

then when you go into runlevel 3 that connection will still be connected
in runlevel 3

service wpa_supplicant start
wait a few minutes for the wpa supplicant to sync up with router
then
service network start

That's it.

Hi Martin,
the OP said single user mode,
so there is no desktop.
I have already responded to him
with exactly I do when in single user mode
and need wireless internet in that mode.

Wonderful. Now one responder told him to use NetworkManager and you've
just told him to use something incompatible with NM. Unless there's
clear evidence that NM is causing him problems, this is only going to
lead to headaches down the road.

I missed the "use NM" email. Does NM work in single-user mode?!

Back that up with a how to then!!
Usually it is wpa_supplicant which will drive the usual wext driver
to communicate with the underlying wifi chipset driver.
Unless the OP has specified a different driver in
/etc/sysconfig/wpa_supplicant.
