Fedora 11 doesn't see my wireless. Dell 1525 w/ wireless 1395 mini card. I ran the file to show what I have. I see it's a broadcom but how, or what file, do I make the connection. trying it running off the cd first too.
Thanks Ikester2

Howdy. You need the broadcom wl driver. It's not open source, so Fedora doesn't include it by default.

Here's a guide to get it.
