Comment(by daveb):

 Using kmod-rt2860 module from rpmfusion, wireless works on EEEPC 901/1000.
 Other netbooks will need to identify which wireless chipsets are used.

 I tested this by installing Fedora 11 Preview to an SD card, then adding
 the rpmfusion repositories and installed kmod-rt2860. Due to a problem you
 can't setup rpmfusion on soas, it says you need system-release >= 11.
