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:

All help will be very gratefully received.
