HELP! I have a Dlink DWL-G520 card and can't get online with it in FC3 Test 1. I'm on a wireless network and can only get online with Winbloze. Any help from anyone on how to d/l and install the Madwifi drivers for this card would be a great help. Thanks in advance.

ty blahrus. plan on doing a clean reinstall with everything on an 80Gig Seagate drive and then try the install of the drivers later tonight or tomorrow.

first of all, i'd like to thank everyone for their help. i've completed steps 1-6 with no errors(well 1 that i've since corrected). now i'm stuck again. upon doing step 7 in StiAT's nice little checklist i get "ifup ath0 failed". i get a similar message when using the Network Adapters Config from KDE and trying to activate the devices("Determining IP Information for Ath0 Failed"). the Network Adapters Config shows two devices in it's list(1 Artheos wireless adapter and 1 ethernet adapter). their identities are ath0 and eth0. i checked the hardware tab and the adapter tab and found that neither have the following information:
Mem
IO
IO1
IO2
DMA0
DMA1
i was able to ascertain the IRQ settings with KDE's System Information. any help with the other values would be of great assistance as this would i'm sure complete the configuration or a few more steps thereafter. thanks again guys.
