Howto configure Wireless Card in FC5

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have FC5 on a vanilla Athlon 64  CPU. I also have a Netgear WPN311 NIC.

My question is-
How do I get this NIC to talk to my LAN which is hosted with a Netgear DG834PN ADSL/Router. I have tried to install the madwifi rpms from atrpms, but the wireless card does not seem to be seen.

The output from iwconfig is:-
lo        no wireless extensions.

eth1      no wireless extensions.

eth0      no wireless extensions.

sit0      no wireless extensions.

... from ifconfig is:
eth1      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:0F:EA:8C:2E:52

All help will be very gratefully received.
