Hi,

on Fedora Core 5 with a laptop, we recommend using NetworkManager for a 
user friendly way to setup a wireless connection. This tool is also able 
to deal with WPA.

Alternatively, you could use dldr_wpa_supplicant available at:

http://www.linuxant.com/driverloader/wlan/full/downloads.php#wpa

This package comes with a script will greatly help setup WPA. Simply run 
the 'dldrwpaconfig' command in a root shell when the package is 
installed to setup WPA.

For the problem with yum, please make sure that you have an active 
Internet connection when you use that tool, it is quite possible that it 
is the cause of the error message you have reported.

Regards,
