Wireless on Fedora 9

dellthinker · 06-03-2008, 05:00 PM

Bi all. Im going through a lot to get my roadcom Corporation BCM4311 wireless card working. I would like to hear from those who have this same card, and got it working with out any head aches on Fedora 9. Any comments you'd like to add are welcome.(As long as there about getting that card working with Fedora 9) Thanx in advance!

Can you run lspci
What does the network monitor have to say about your card? At what point does it fall over?
I have had several problems with Fedora 9 around networking and so in future I'll be sticking to pure Debian or one of the distros close to it, they just do what I want and I have fewer troubles. Incidentally I'm not prejudiced, the first distro I used was Fedora 2 and it suited my (then) meagre needs perfectly.
