Question Looking for Wireless adapter for FC6


I am fairly new to Linux. I successfully got fedora core 6 installed on my home computer (DELL XPS 600), but I have been unable to get my wireless network up and running. I currently use a Belkin N1 adapter, but Belkin does not make drivers for Linux or offer Linux support. I also have a NIC card on my computer (NVIDIA nForce Networking Controller) that seems to be recognized by Linux. I am willing to buy a new wireless adapter or get a router that connects to the network without a cable. I have tried the DriverLoader program from Linuxant.com, but have had no success there either. Does anyone know of a wireless adapter with a Linux compatable driver or have another solution to this problem? Thanks.

Try searching the LQ Hardware Compatibility List for cards other members have used successfully.

Alternatively, use a wireless Ethernet adapter or a router than can be used in bridge mode as described here: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...d.php?t=536898
