Subject: I can't download "Intel(R) PRO/Wirele​ss 2200BG Dr iver for Linux"

Dear..

I'm trying to find a driver of Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2915ABG Network
Connection to use wireless network in my old laptop with Fedora18.
Very pleased to find Intel® PRO/Wireless 2200BG Driver for Linux and
followed your webpage but failed to get download files.
Because the download page didn't open at
http://ipw2200.sourceforge.net/firmware.php?i_agree_to_the_license=yes&f=ipw2200-fw-3.1.tgz.
I hope you can receive this e-mail and hope to get the driver which
can only solve this network connection problem.

Best Regards,

Hyunsu Lim

Your kernel should already have a driver for that card, all you need
is the firmware.

Fedora should provide a package containing it. Install that.

I believe that Fedora provides a package with this firmware in it, you
should install that.
