Belkin USB Wi-Fi Dongle

[JDDurrant]

I am using Fedora 16 32bit and I am having trouble getting my Belkin F7D 1101 v1 to work. My wireless router is at the other end of the house and the only way I can connect to the Internet is by connecting the computer to my Mac with an ethernet cable. Are there any drivers I could get hold of for my Wi-Fi dongle? And could you be specific if you have a solution? I'm new to Fedora because I decided to switch from Ubuntu when 11.10 came out.

It would help anyone attempting to resolve your wireless driver issue if you could identify the actual chipset used in the wireless dongle. A quick search on Google tells me it's probably a realtech rtl8192su, but if you could post the output of the command lsusb, with the dongle plugged in, it should help identify/confirm which chipset you have.

I found something: http://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/R8712U.html Could I have a bit of help installing this driver on my Fedora 16 32bit system? Just a list of the correct Terminal commands will help a lot.
