dell inspiron 1501 wifi

Post by nick77 » 2007/04/19 22:33:34

Centos 4.4 final I was able to get ndiswrapper to show up in the network config tool and was working just fine. Reformatted and did a fresh Centos 5 install. Got the wifi light on, iwconfig shows wlan0, 'iwlist scan' shows available networks and essids, etc.

Problem is, ndiswrapper does not show up in the network config tool. Any ideas?

the solution to this is to create /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-wlan0 - it populated in the network config tool after i manually wrote it and started it up.
