Dynex Wireless PCI card in Fedora 11

[ckrenke]

Hi all,

Fedora doesn't seem to be recognizing my wireless card. It's a Dynex Wireless G PCI card. I found a thread that instructed me to provide the info below. Any ideas? Forgive me, I'm a newbie. Thanks a ton!!

Wow, my bad. It works now. It was not obvious to me how to get the card working by going through the network settings. However, when I clicked on the network icon in the menu bar, I was given info about available wireless networks. I chose one and it worked!
