i have fedora core 7 installed onm my ps3

i dont know how to connect to my wireless router

does anyone have any step by step guides of how i can connect to it

aliov

you can enable the network manager services from the gnome menu System-Administrator-services. also to be sure that your wifi is working before you can try the following as root.

iwconfig (and then see with interface is a wireless extension let's say eth1)

iwconfig eth1 essid (your_network_name) mode manages key (your_key or off if there is no key)
dhclient eth1.

Regards.

i do the iwconfig eth0 essid ..,
and it comes up

error for wireless request "set encode" (8B2A)
invalid argument "RGQGJRUH"

aliov

so eth0 is not your wifi card, post the output of iwconfig please.

Sorry it's your wifi Card , so i believe that you did a mistake when typing the command , let's split the command
here is my case

iwconfig eth0 essid Alic-7cad mode managed ( press enter)
iwconfig eth0 key AR2345rnf..............
dhclient eth0

and post if there is any problem.

Regards.
