Yes, FC4 comes with wireless support. I guess you have a PC and not a
laptop, so you have to google for some information about Linux supported
wireless PCI cards. One site is

http://www.linuxwiki.de/LinuxWireless

which is German, but you can translate it using google's bablefish. I
think a Ralink 2500 based card like MSI PC54G2 is a good catch - at
least if you don't run an SMP system.
