I have used system-config-network to set the SSID, channel, and hex password. I set the network "Mode:" to "Auto". The dialog does not offer a choice of WEP, WPA, etc. I've looked at the RedHat docs for setting up wireless networking and I think I've done everything suggested. What do I try next?
Is NetworkManager installed and started?
# chkconfig --list|fgrep Network
Is wpa_supplicant installed?
I have a notebook with a bcm43xx card with FC6, it works without problems. NetworkManager takes care of prompting for WPA keys, etc. Actually, it is easier to use than when booted in Windows.
