Belkin F5D6130 on Ubuntu

Hi,

I just got some Ubuntu CDs, and want to connect an old box to an existing wireless network. I don't have a spare WiFi network card, and as I'm only 14, can't afford a new one. I have a spare Belkin F5D6130 wireless Access Point, and was wondering if it would be possible to use that as my networking device.

Has anyone had any experience with this product under linux?

-Ben

Googling a little bit suggests it'll work fine, but there may be some security issues
