Ok -- I briefly searched, and found that the DNS needed to be changed to the local IP assigned to my machine. Eth0 works. Wifi does not
The essid of the network should be '817wifi' not linksys. The router may or may not be picking up the WEP key, as I don't use one at home and use vpn authentication at school.
Is it possible that I need to specify the WEP key in a place other than /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ath0?
