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

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.
