I'm using Fedora (Rawhide).  I used wireless for 2 weeks while I was out
of town two weeks ago.

I installed the ipw-2200 firmware in /lib/firmware/ several months ago
and just forgot about it.  It worked without problems as long as I don't
need encryption support.

Rawhide had a botched update to system-config-network just as I was
traveling home, so I ended up having to hand editing ifcfg-eth1 to set
the ESSID to LaQuinta.  That problem was fixed by the time I got home.


What does "iwconfig" say?

If iwconfig says the TX-power is on, what does "iwlist eth1 scanning"
say? (assuming eth1 is your wireless card)

If iwconfig can't locate your wireless card, how about a peak at your
system's dmesg output?
