Help reqd in installing wireless usb adapter on fed 14
Hello all,
I am fed up on trying to install my newly purchased usb wireless antenna to my fedora14 machine; so I seek help of all you linux masterminds out there. It worked well in my Win XP. Please help me in setting up it to my Fedora. [I have been trying to get some solution from google as well from past 2 days which did not help].
The device model is : Aztech Wireless-N USB2.0 - WL552USB
