Devryn Posted April 12, 2004 Report Share Posted April 12, 2004 I just setup my Dell Inspiron 2650 to dual boot Fedora Linux and WinXP Pro. I'm awesome with Windows, but I know jack shyte about Linux. I'm trying to get my wireless card, a Netgear WG511T, to work in Linux. Can someone walk me through this process?

fearby Posted April 12, 2004 Report Share Posted April 12, 2004 Easiest is to install the Linuxant wrapper and you should be sorted within a few minutes. Its free for a few weeks then its $20 or somrthing - works with my Netgear WG311 PCI card Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devryn Posted April 12, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2004 I should have mentioned I installed Linuxant, but I can't figure out how to use it. It didn't add any application shortcuts anywhere... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fearby Posted April 12, 2004 Report Share Posted April 12, 2004 Just go into configure your computer and add new LAN connection and eth1 or whatever should be there and you can configure ip address etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
