Hi List;
I would like to setup wireless connections within my network to 2 desktops (both currently run FC3). I use the ipw2200 pkg with my centrino laptop (also running FC3) however I suspect it won't be this easy with a desktop. If this works out then I may look at setting up a third box (a cent OS server) with a wireless connection.
Any pointers, advice, hardware/software tips, recommendations, etc would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance...

#1 suggestion is read the mailing list archives - this has been asked and answered a myriad of times already, so it wouldn't do much good to re-hash it.
Also visit google with your query - there's so many articles, how-to documents, and dedicated wireless on Linux sites you're bound to find what you need there.
I use D-Link DWL-G520 cards in my Linux desktop systems with the MADWIFI driver.
If you prefer USB, I use DWL-G122 with ndiswrapper on Linux to get that to work.

That one has a native Linux driver:

A list of other PCI hardware able to use those drivers is to be found at
