| | I have Linux Fedora Core 3 dual booted with Windows XP Pro. I recently purchased a Wireless card for the computer, an old 715 MHz Celeron made by Linksys, the WMP54GS. I have the matching wireless router, and everything works fine in Windows. However, Fedora does not recognize my wireless card. I have attempted to find info from the linksys site, but it is currently down. Being a novice to Linux, I was wondering if anyone here could help me?

vizskywalker: Awile back I had installed Red Hat Linux 9.0 on this computer I now using. Every thing worked fine but my lan card. I could see the other computers on the network. So I figured the card was fine. But I couldnt gain acsess to them or them to this computer The best I could figure was a lang problem. Windows ver Linux. Yet my burner was unreconised at all. From all sorces I would have to write my own driver for it. Found that site throught google under linux for all information dealing with Linux forget the sites name. Know I didnt help you much but hey I decided windows alot easyer to use than Linux is.

I've actually figured out the netowrking issue. There is a utility called ndiswrapper which allows you to use windows wireless drivers in Linux. The problem is it was designed for debian, and I can't set it up properly to install for fedora because my Fedora install is funny, and I don't have source anywhere and the folders that should exist don't. So I'm just going to reinstall Fedora since the'yr up to core 4 now and try again. But thanks anyway. ~Viz

Can't Connect To Internet In Linux
- Driver problem? (8)
I am new to linux and just installed Kubuntu. I have windows XP on my master primary hard drive and
Kubuntu is installed on my slave drive. Everything seems to work great except that I cannot connect
to the internet when I boot into Kubuntu (I also tried Ubuntu). I am thinking maybe it has something
to do with ethernet adapter driver. I can connect just fine in windows, so I know that the actual
hardware isn't messed up. Windows uses the driver for Realtek RTL8139/810x Family Ethernet NIC.
I looked through google and help forum threads and it seems others have h...

Well, I have had a linksys wireless b router for some time now, but had been having issues with not
getting a strong enough signal throughout my house. Yet what seemed odd, is that I could get
stronger signal from all of my neighbors, even those who were down the street several houses from
me. And so I decided that it was time to purchase a new wireless router. Even though, the newest
computer I have is wireless g, I went for the wireless n because of the increased range, and the
thought that it will probably be a better investment for the future. I am impressed, immed...
Is Linksys Anti-GPL?
- (6)
Today I was out looking for the WRT54GL, the router with the Linux based firmware. I can't seem
to find it in stores ANYWHERE! It's like Linksys is anti-GPL so they created this router just to
get people to shut up about how they changed the WRT54G when someone noticed it was Linux based and
they should have provided the source code. I'd like to get a WRT54GL so I can load DD-WRT on it
as DD-WRT looks like excellent firmware. My router, WRT54G v5 can only support the mini-DD-WRT
because Linksys decided to go evil with this version and made the firmware non-L...
How Do I Use Linux To Create A Switch From Multiple Ethernet Ports
- (16)
I have a Linux box with three ethernet ports (NIC cards). I could easily give it more. I have one
ethernet connection to the outside world at college. College's ethernet policy is amazing, as
they give us IP addresses that in theory are fully routable from the outside world (haven't had
a chance to try it out). Unfortunately, I have another computer, my primary laptop, that is
connected to the internet, and no switch or router. I was wondering how to use my Linux box as
either a switch or router. What I want to do is the following: 1) Connect the Linux box ...

couldn't detect the (I'm guessing" weak signal emitted from my cheap router. My computer
(Which isn't using the linksys adapter) uses a cheap external wireless adapter the same brand as
the router and it connects perfectly. When i called linksys to ask why it didn't work, they told
me its because the signal is very weak and when i tried like nudge it a little it ...
