Installing my wireless network. Total newbie

Hi everyone. I have Fedora 10 installed and want to get my wireless portion set up. I have a Linksys WUSB600n Network adaptor and a Linksys WRT600N router. I can connect just fine wired but have no idea how to connect wireless. Any help is appreciated. Believe it or not i'm having quite a bit of fun figuring things out but this wireless stuff is getting on my nerves Thanks for all your help.

The WUSB600n is a wireless usb device, right? With it plugged in, if you get a console up, and type ifconfig -a, do you see any devices labelled like wlan0, wlan1? If not, you're computer is not working with the wireless gizmo. Doing a quick google for "WUSB600n linux" suggests that you've not picked the easiest thing to get going on linux. If you've not got a wlan0, try asking in the Hardware section of this forum.

Thanks Super. Nope, no Wlan anything. Yes, it is USB. Off to the Hardware section.

As you've made the second thread asking about the card, I'll close this thread to avoid confusion. Thanks.
