They are not open source -- they work for me. -J From: Suresh Govindachar <sgovindac...@yahoo.com> To: users@lists.fedoraproject.org Cc: Sent: Thursday, February 24, 2011 10:38 PM Subject: FC14 Live CD and wireless connection to the internet Hello, Neither Fedore-14-x86_64-Live-Desktop.iso nor Fedora-14-x86_64-Live-KDE.iso on a laptop seemed to detect the wireless network. The laptop has Dell Wireless 1510 Wireless-N WLAN Mini-Card and refs [1, 2] seem to indicate that necessary drivers/software are in Fedora by default since late 2008, with the latest update being in December 2010. My windows laptop lists my home network as "WPA". What needs to be done to get on the internet from either live CD?
