Fedora 4 Wireless Connection

This was not a simple task for me...

But maybe if I knew what I was doing from the beginning it would have been simple.

Using system-config-network, I have to prepend most of my command line calls with sudo (or su) and /sbin/pickYourCommandHere.

Linksys had some of the most succint info on setting up the router.
