These two lines are all I have in my /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf

I don't know what is the MAC address of the router. I don't have a router at home. I'm using wifi (windowze only at this moment) only in Cafes. I hope I don't need to ask the MAC address everytime I go to a different cafe to be able to use fedora wifi :-)
