To solve the problem, just copy
etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 to
etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1 and then modifie the field
"TYPE" to Wireless(e.g. TYPE=Wireless), save it and start
redhat-config-network tools and configure Wireless (eth1) again.
I hope this will help.
Best Regards,
Jean-Jacques.
