OK, I have airport running from the beginning without any problems ...

1 - airport provides me with dhcp ...

2 - no adding for routes what so ever

3 - create rc.modules

cat /etc/rc.modules
modprobe airport

that is all, rc.modules must be chmod 755 and is run once on boot time
it provides you with eth1

4 - setup ifcfg-eth1

cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1
DEVICE=eth1
IPADRR=""
NETMASK=""
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
ONBOOT=yes

from now on, your normal network start and stop scripts will give you eth1 
running ... 
No routes to add
No dns to add
No gateways

this is enough, it works

dhcp is default provided by pump and this gives you all you need
