First, always check in /var/log/messages or the interface is recognized.
Actually before you buy a wireless card (all hardware), check or the
chipset is supported under Linux.
When the card is recognized, check what information you get.
Normally, wireless cards are set as 'ath0' , 'ath1', etc. , not as 'eth0'.
It is always the best to pick some information about projects at
sourceforge.

Hello all and thanks in advance. I have a Laptop that has an internal
wireless card - I couldn't get RH to recognize the internal (since I didn't
know the Manufacturer it was at the time nor whether it would be eth0 or
eth1) - so, to simplify matters and work with known items, I purchased a
"Dell 1350 WLAN PC Card" for my PCMCIA slot. Now, question is, when I boot
up RH9 I can see that the PCMCIA services are starting - I went to add the
1350 to the wireless setup and it's not listed and I'm not sure what it
mimics to pick AND not sure whether it will be eth0-1?? Can anyone assist or
direct me to some lit?
