I cant get my Belkin USB wireless point to work on Fedora 10 linux?

I cant get my Belkin N Wireless access point (USB) to work on Fedora 10 linux.
I did the /sbin/lsusb command and got the component number:
050d:815c

I am new to linux and need some help. Thanks alot.

I am not a Fedora user but I may be able to help. You need to firstly determine if your wireless chipset is supported by the kernel that you are running.

If that is the case you then need to check that the module for that chipset is loaded.

If that chipset is not supported by the kernel, then you will need to compile the necessary module for the kernel and then load it using modprobe or the equivalent.

Keep in mind if you have to compile the module, you will need to do that every time there is a major chance to the kernel.
