Example. your WEP key is incorrect. When you scan the environment for networks, do you find them $ /sbin/iwlist scan Does it find the wireless routers? If it does, that means we have to work on the configuration of your network. The FC5 system-config-network program is usually OK, but not always. If you control the router, turn off encryption to simplify the testing. Why not do some diagnostics and report back. First, is the card's kernel module being enabled. If you do $ /sbin/lsmod do you see the ipw2200 module listed? Look in /var/log/messages and scan for the lines about the 2200 module. Any info? If system-config-network doesn't get it right, sometimes I find the program wifi-radar does. good luck pj On 8/28/06, Barry Tepperman <<A HREF="mailto:pogofenokee@earthlink.net">pogofenokee@earthlink.net</A>> wrote: > > Well, it would have been nice if that had worked.
