Connecting to Wireless network


Hi guys,

I just installed Fedora Core 3 (2.6.9-1.677) on my ThinkPad (T41) and installed the MadWifi drivers for the Netgear wireless PC card (WG511U) I plan to use. My question is; how do I connect to a wireless network? Any way to "view" available wireless networks?

I'm using the GUI, would that be in the 'Wireless Settings' of the 'Wireless Device Configuration'? So far I played around with the settings and haven't gotten anywhere.

For now I'm wired.

Thanks in advance.

Just discovered KWiFiManager.

It goes through all the networks but doesn't really "connect".
I tried playing with the config but it doesn't seem to save.

Still wired.
