For Ethernet Controller :-

Actully Realtek Ethernet controller driver rtl8169 Driver is supported by fedora but here we need r8168 driver do just download the package r8168-8.029.00.tar.bz2

and then go to your Download directory and use commands
#cd r8168
#./autorun.sh
It will rmmod yr rtl8169 driver and then load newly build driver r8168
Now your ethernet Controller will work successfully

//For Wireless

Driver is supported by fedora for the Network Controller : Intel Device 0896(rev 34) but its firmware is missing . So we need to load that firmware in our system .

just download a file name -   iwlwifi-6000g2b-5.ucode

#yum install iwl6000g2b-firmware.noarch
and then reboot your System
