Hello…I am a newbie to Linux. I recently bought a portable USB Wifi device. I verified it works on my Windows computer. I also verified my key/password works too; as I was able to connect to The Internet wirelessly via Windows with this device. How do I get my USB Wifi to work via my Fedora 17 laptop? In the top corner I see my wifi connection name, however my password/ key does not work when I try to connect in Fedora? When I got it to work via Windows it was plug/play, however the driver disk also came with an .exe file too if needed. The disk, with drivers, also has a Linux driver folder, however I'm guessing I can’t connect, because I didn’t install any of these Linux drivers. How do I install the Linux drivers, because I don’t know how to do it without an .exe file? I have included what the zip file looks like that was on the driver disk. Please help. The simpler the instructions the better (I’m a newbie) if you think my problem is missing drivers??…Thanks!..Chris |
