Configuring the wireless with many Linux distros can be difficult to say the least...it depends on the chip your wireless card is based on. You *may* have to load NDISwrapper & install your Windows driver. See if this helps:

Have fun. Im using a very old and unsupported version of Ubuntu 6.10. I had to use ndiswrapper to encapsulate the windows driver because at the time my belkin wireless card was not supported on the distro. If you have a look under Ubuntu forums under my user name you may find my original post from some years back on "how to".
