hi & welcome forums,

wireless cards don't play happily ubuntu, , can frustrating start with.

anyway, don't mention version of ubuntu you're using, i'm presuming it's new install of 11.10. if is, go [b]system settings[b] menu option power & shutdown menu (the cog @ top right), choose additional drivers , see if there proprietary drivers available system.
