You can start by listing all ethernet devices detected by the kernel:
lspci|grep -i eth
Then, to see if you have any wireless devices that have already had their kernel drivers loaded:iwconfig
If you can't find iwconfig, install the wireless-tools package (yum install wireless-tools). If iwconfig reports a device with wireless extensions, then you're half-way there. Report back and we'll help you associate w/an SSID, enter a Key, etc.
If you don't, you'll need to get the proper driver loaded. Try this site for help:
http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Laptops/Wireless
Also,
What version of CentOS are you using?
What is the vendor/model of your wireless adapter hardware?0 -
The version of Centos is 5.6. The model of the hardware and Intel (see the reference to it)
The computer is a toshiba and Centos detected the wireless card can not ativala more.0 -
Sorry, see the reference to it where? Can you copy-and-paste the output of those commands from your terminal to this thread?0

ok. I will try and explore the site to me because I see that site is very good.0
