Is there a graphical wireless management tool (like Windows has)?
 

I'm running Fedora Core 2 on a Dell Inspiron 1100 with a Dell TrueMobile 1300 802.11b/g card. The card is running fine under ndiswrapper.

I'd like to take my laptop out & about to different hotspots in the area. But I don't always know what SSID to use at these locations. And, at one place, I have a plaintext code to use to generate the WEP key, but not the WEP key itself.

In XP, there is a single place I can go to view the available wireless connections, pick one to use, and configure my system for it.

Is there a similar program available for Linux (preferably that will run in Gnome, since Fedora installed it by default)? I'm sure I could use a combination of a wifi sniffer and iwconfig, but I'd prefer an integrated solution.

In linux there is always more then one choice, the problem is which is the best.

would you be so kind to post here your evaluation

Wouldn't you know it? I finally get wireless working well under Linux and the hard drive on my laptop died.

Dell is sending a replacement my way, and I'll be sure to follow up on this post when I'm back up & running. :)
