I think you should have followed this guide > http://madwifi.org/wiki/UserDocs/Distro/RedHat

Edit: And how about this Tutorial right here at LQ:
http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/..._chipped_cards

Is Google not your friend?

I hope those help. I can do madwifi on Slackware,
no problem, but have never used Fedora. If you still
have troubles, you might want to try the madwifi channel:
FreeNode at IRC #madwifi
