No. FWIW, the "rev 09" you got from lspci is about the _hardware_ revision. The iwl6000-firmware package should be installed by default, especially on a clean install. It is possible that the base Fedora install has an older version (not sure when the last update happened), but if you have done a "yum update" then you should already have the updated firmware package. > Now, do I understand correctly that I need to keep that old firmware > but roll back to an older Fedora Kernel to get the Intel Centrino Advanced-N > 6200 to play nice > with Fedora? This is incorrect. Please forget it. What seems most likely is that you have an older (possibly pre-release) piece of hardware that has EEPROM data on the card that the driver refuses to recognize. Whether or not it is supposed to recognize it is the only remaining question. Hopefully Wey-yi will chime-in. John -- John W.
