getting madwifi drivers installed without a network


the situation
got fedora 7 up and running but no network because I need to install the madwifi drivers to set it up

the problem
i need a network to yum install madwifi-*

the solution?
can someone point me to a place to download an rpm for madwifi and related dependencies for fedora 7 using rpm -ivh "madwifi and related dependencies.rpm"

I googled but they were for another kernel version or f8 or something, i don't want to install from source as i dont have any means to track the packages currently... can anyone help, it would be much appreciated.

Get the madwifi driver for your wireless card and put it on a floppy, thumb drive or cd disc...and for other dependencies use the F7 cd.
