Any suggestions on how to track down what's going wrong?
Can you grab /var/log/messages from the machine? It might be the autoconnect thing; up to F8T3 NM didn't have the logic to connect to the last known network, which was added later. If you used NM before you won't have 'autoconnect' set up on that connection. Check GConf in /system/networking/connections, find your "auto eth0" connection, and make sure that 'autoconnect' is checked.
