I hope someone can help me. I'm trying to setup a D-Link DWA-547 on CentOS 5.5 x64 in console only mode, i.e. there's no X installed. The Wiki article suggests using NetWork Manager, but since there's no X installed on this server, it's not possible.
How do I go about installing this card?
Here's the output of lspci -v:
01:00.0 Network controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR5008 Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01) Subsystem: D-Link System Inc Unknown device 3a6b
I can only point you in the right direction (sorry!). This is from memory and from a setup that I've used on Fedora in the past so CentOS _should_ be similar...
You have to install wpa_supplicant and the relevant configuration files are: /etc/wpa_supplicant/wap_supplicant.conf /etc/sysconfig/wpa_supplicant /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/keys-eth0
