Wireless Connection - Dell Inspiron 1525
I have recently installed Fedora 16 over Mint 10 and am wondering how to get a Wireless connection. It says firmwares missing.

What is telling you that the firmware is missing? And 1395 or something? You don't really seem sure......
Could you post the output of the following commands for me, using code tags? Thanks!
Code:
lspci -v
lsmod
ifconfig -a
iwconfig
Cheers,
Josh
