I have just setup a wireless router and it works fine with windows vista. I am running centos on a laptop as well as on another hard drive within the same system running windows vista.
I need to know how to configure the settings within centos to connect to the internet.
I have tried entering ip, subnet mask and gateway but no luck so far.
Even prior to setting up this router, i was unable to connect to the internet using centos but at that time did not bother much about this issue.
However in the past when i used fedora, i never experienced any such issues as it used to determine the etho settings automatically.

Unable to connect to the Internet using centos
Can you ping your other local machines?
What are the output of:
ifconfig
iwconfig
route -n
cat /etc/resolv.conf

Re: Unable to connect to the Internet using centos
Your wireless card was not found.
What is the output of 'lspci'?
Maybe someone with your card can help.
