Summary: initscripts hoses wireless network

After updating initscripts to version 6.91-13.1mdk, wireless network no longer
works. After re-installing 6.91-10mdk net is back up.

I've had the same problem and was able to fix it with the same solution.
I've got a D-Link DWL-650 that is using by default the wvlan_cs module.
What seems to fail is line 135 of /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/network-functions.
grep -q -E "$1: +[09]+ +0." /proc/net/wireless && return 0
This test fails as the contents of my /proc/net/wireless is:
Inter-| sta-| Quality | Discarded packets | Missed
face | tus | link level noise | nwid crypt frag retry misc | beacon
eth1: 0000 92. 245. 154. 0 0 0 0 18 0
As you can see, the final part of that grep test above (the +0. ) is breaking
it. It's the oposite of what it should be... you want to check the signal
quality and have it anything other than 0.
Hope this helps. Please fix this and issue another update. Thank you.
