I've also visited the ces.clemenson.edu steps but all i've got it's a "connection led" on "yes" on my modem/router, a ping between the laptop and the modem/router and _nothing_ more. I have a static IP address policy and tried to set it on the wireless nic with the help of system-config-manager. Maybe we should write a policy, a list of task to follow to get NM to work. In the meantime, if one doesn't need WPA encryption maybe can try wlanassistant or NetGo (this last one used with success on a SUSE box). thanks -- nicola .:kOoLiNuS:. losito http://koolinus.wordpress.com http://www.koolinus.net "If privacy is outlawed, only outlaws will have privacy."
