Does Fedora ship with any tools for configuring a wireless network, by
the way ?  I got my card (a D-Link DWL-G520) working without too many
problems.  However, that was by manually editing
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ath0, guessing as to required
settings based on a wireless configuration script in the same
directory.

There's got to be some easier way to do that (Fedora autodetected the
card once I installed the drivers, but didn't allow me to specify
anything like access points, encryption keys, etc. so that didn't
work)
