Re: Setting Up Linksys Wireless Internet with Fadora

dont know anything about a key.

but i used this:

https://www.linuxant.com/driverloader/wlan/downloads-installer.php

in my laptop and it works like a charm.

its $20 but WELL worthwhile.

the ndiswrapper would load but i could never get it connected to my 
network by manually configuring.

my time is worth a little more than $20.

Hello All,

I am trying to set up a wireless network in my house and one of the computers is running Fadora.  I know absolutly nothing about the operating system and any help would be greatly appreciated.  I need to know where exactly I enter the key so that the adapter can connect to the network.

Thanks in Advance

I used ndiswrapper on multiple laptops and pci cards without any hitch so 
far. But for a newbie ndiswrapper might hard to deal with since:
1. You need to recompile the kernel, since the default fedora kernel uses 4k 
stacks.
2. You need to compile ndiswrapper.
3. You need to configure ndiswrapper.

You MAY need to recompile the kernel.  Only those who experience the
lockups when using the default kernel need to consider that.
A lot of us don't need to, and if we do the kernel rpm with 16K stack is
available from linuxant.com

i686.php

True

Only so far as installing the windows drivers, which you need to do on
any system the adapter is put into ( Windows, Linux, etc.).
