I think that linux = is week in the area of wireless connections, there are not enough linux = drivers for most of the PCI wireless cards in the market. My microsoft = windows computer is connected to the internet via a wireless connection = and is running well. Therefore, I am wondering if it is possible to = connect my fedora box to my windows computer through a network router, = and have my linux connect to the internet through my windows connection. = I will appreciate any suggestions. I know it is a bit of a challenge, = but will give it a try. Cheers, Cris
