So I followed Justin Conover's ipw2200 how-to (very easy) and got my
wireless adapter to be recognized under the new fc5 test2 (i used the
newest firmware, though).  But now I'm having problems actually
connecting.  Basically, I went with what I know--kwifimanager and also
system-config-network.  The system-config-network shows my wireless card
and I try to set up a connection but nothing.  Now with kwifimanager, it
shows all the ssid's of networks around and I set up in the
configuration my network, and its corresponding password, and it does
connect, but firefox shows nothing.  Any ideas?

Also--I tried networkmanager, including running the services
(serviceconf) and running it, but to no avail--/usr/bin doesnt seem to
have NetworkManagerInfo or something.  Any ideas?  Anyone else have
these problems in the new fc5 test2?

Thanks,
Alex

If you see the device from /sbin/iwconfig

/sbin/iwconfig
lo        no wireless extensions.

eth0      no wireless extensions.

eth1      unassociated  ESSID:off/any 
          Mode:Managed  Channel=0  Access Point: 00:00:00:00:00:00  
          Bit Rate=0 kb/s   Tx-Power=20 dBm  
          Retry limit:7   RTS thr:off   Fragment thr:off
          Power Management:off
          Link Quality:0  Signal level:0  Noise level:0
          Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:0
          Tx excessive retries:0  Invalid misc:0   Missed beacon:0

For example I just have a little script in my users $HOME

$ cat wireless.sh
#!/bin/bash
/bin/su -c "/sbin/iwconfig eth1 essid YOURACCESSPOINT key YOURKEY && /sbin/dhclient eth1 && /sbin/ifconfig eth1"

just chmod +x and sh wireless.sh as your user and should be up.
