cdrecord currently supports DVD-R/-RW, but (afaik) does not
currently support DVD+R/+RW drives. From the CDRecord web site:
Cdrecord supports DVD-R and DVD-RW with all known DVD-writers
on all UNIX-like OS and on Win32.
Have you tried installing the wireless extensions rpm?
Other than that i have no clue, havent played with wifi on linux.

Didn't help either, but thanks for the tip...
this is what I did to get it working:
1) upgrade kernel and reboot
2) enable supermount in MDK CC
3) check that supermount is loaded with lsmod
4) put a cd in the cd-player
5) wait and see nothing happen
6) cd /mnt/cdrom2 and nothing
Also look at the media the drive supports. I had a SF 8x burner that was
VERY specific on which it would burn on...not in the documentation. Though
it was the 1st 8x burner out on consumer level in the US.
