Dear folks,
I am having a difficult time connecting at decent speeds to a wireless network
setup by my nephew with Fedora 14. I installed Fedora 14 on a quad core machine
that had Fedora 12 happily running. IT has a built in wireless device
integrated in it. The installation worked beautifully and connected the first
time around. The driver rtl8187 loaded fine and I browsed the web and applied
all the updates and got new kernel too. I was very happy. I turned off the
machine and yesterday and today tried to connect to internet with it and it not
longer works the way it did the first time :(, I cannot connect to any page like
I did before and networkmanger in KDE tells me that I am connected but cannot
browse. In windows, I can browse the web without troubles, here is output from
ipconfig /all

What can I do in Linux to make my connection work the same way that it did the
first time? I appreciate any advice given and hope all users around the world
have a nice Thanksgiving Holiday :)
Regards,
Antonio
