Wireless not working.

Hi there, I un-installed ndiswrapper. Now my wireless is not working. How do I re-engage the native Linux driver? In gnome in network manager my USB wireless device is not being picked up.

Can you provide more details ? Which Fedora you use ? What kind of wireless card you have ?

Oh sorry. I'm using Fedora 11 with Gnome and I have a TP-Link USB wireless device.

That should let you know the precise device. I don't think it's a device problem though. I'm thinking there's a command to bring the wireless device back up. Not sure though.
