And just to add to what Roky said, you will not be able to upgrade the RHEL kernel to a recent enough kernel unless you compile your own. RHEL does not provide a kernel that you can use.I do not respond to private messages asking for Linux help, Please keep it on the forums only.

if you need to install RHEL to study for RHCE, then do it on a machine that doesn't need wireless, or install it as a virtual machine on a desktop distro like fedora
also, i recommend downloading with the torrent if possible, you can resume download at any time and it reduces load on community servers

As said by the others, WiFi is not well-supported on RHEL or CentOS (effectively the same thing). Some WiFi chip sets are supported, but a lot of newer ones are no. If you need RHEL/CentOS to study for the RHCE exams and need WiFi for network access, then follow coopstah13's advice about running it in a virtual machine under a distribution (fedora, ubuntu, et al) that does support it.
Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.
