I'm using the acx100 drivers, and can sucessfully ping my router and other computers on the network (and they can ping it back). I can't ping outside websites though. I copied my /etc/resolv.conf file from a working Gentoo box. My hosts file contains 127.0.0.1.

route -n shows the following for wlan0
Destination 192.168.0.0 Gateway 0.0.0.0 Genmask 255.255.255.0 Flags U Metric 0 Ref 0 Use 0
and
Destination 0.0.0.0 Gateway 192.168.0.254 Genmask 0.0.0.0 Flags UG Metric 0 Ref 0 Use 0

ifconfig shows the wlan0 interface as working with an ip of 192.168.0.3

I tried disabling the fedora firewall, but that didn't fix it.

Sorry, just solved the problem (why does that seem to almost always happen right after I give up and post my problem to a forum? :) )

The acx100 startup script was setting the incorrect gateway, it should have been 192.168.0.1 instead of 192.168.0.254
