I have a Belkin 54g, 802.11g PCMCIA wireless notebook card. Model F5D7010. I have been beating my head against it for a few weeks off and on with no luck. My laptop is a Dell Inspiron 2650. Tried this with Ubuntu Fiesty and Ubuntu/Kubuntu Gutsy. I thought it was possibly the PCMCIA slot, but a 802.11b card works ok without encryption. It's Belkin too. So far, the consensus in the Ubuntu forums is that Belkin has little if any support/driver help in the Linux arena. I have followed some of the workarounds in the forums with no luck at all. It seems others have a 50-50 success rate with Belkin stuff too.
