i am using the fedora 7. i cant connect to the wireless connection. i am new to this fedora. can any on ehelp me how to fix this thing.

I will be glad to get the responce.

You should have specified what (wireless) network card/chip you have, it's an essential part of the problem. What part doesn't work - can't you find the program that lets you configure wireless networks, doesn't your wireless card (it's radio, really) power up, doesn't it accept your password for the network you're connecting to, can't it find any networks or what?

Google, and LQ (and other places) are full of wireless how-tos. If you know the exact problem (one of those I listed, for example), it's fairly easy to find a similar problem on the web, with a solution. Basically it boils town to:
1) there's no driver that works with the card or
2) there's no [read: I can't find a] program to configure the connection or
3) WEP encryption doesn't work

Solutions to these are generally
1) locate a working driver and install it; if it's about a Windows driver, ndiswrapper may (or may not) help
2) go trough your menus, or use iwlist and iwconfig
3) use wpa_supplicant, and read the instructions c-a-r-e-f-u-l-l-y

The wireless usage is somewhat general on nowadays Linux machines, especially if it's on Fedora/Ubuntu/Mandriva/Mepis/... so if you find a guide/howto for one of those, it most probably works for your distribution too - the only thing that may differ is the graphical user interface used (could be a KDE or Gnome app), but that's just a matter of placement of boxes and buttons, nothing you can't overcome

i am using the hp pavilion laptop and the wireless card in it is nvidia Go force 150. According to the tips given in red hat site i add a new wireless connection through devices. but the problem is that it dosnt show me the nvidia wireless driver. There is no wireless hardware in the list. Do i need to install it or what do i need to do. if there is online link where i can learn how to use linux then i would be glad to learn from there.

Hello. The netcard built into the laptop is an Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection. Fedora 7 recognizes it but when it tries to connect it isn't able to. I'm not sure if it is identifying any wireless networks or not. Where/how could I find that out in Fedora 7. My past experience with previous Fedora cores used a direct connect through an ethernet card.
