It does not help to not know what it was trying to read :-)

You could try resetting the stored defaults for qjackctl, you should
find them in "~/.qt/qjackctlrc". Just erase the file (or move it to a
different location) and it will be recreated next time you start
qjackctl.

What kernel are you booting? (type "uname -r" in a terminal to find
out). It could be that the standard Fedora kernel has extra drivers that
cover your wireless card and they are not part of the rt kernel (which
is based on the vanilla Linus kernel plus Ingo's patches). 

Try booting into the Fedora kernel and see if wireless starts working
again.
