PS Thanks for the help
Is your wireless router have the WEP setup correctly and turned on?

Does ifconfig eth1 get an ip? Does eth0 still have an ip too? If both of those are true, you might disable eth0
/sbin/ifconfig eth0 down

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,

just chmod +x and sh wireless.sh as your user and should be up.
Just realized I should test out NetworkManager when I get home tonight :)
