I have a dual boot system and my internet works in XP...I have some networking experiance (i.e. a couple cisco classes) I was just wandering if someone can help me get started.... I have a belkin 802.11g wireless card..

I am not sure whether Belkin Linux Driver exists or not.

However you can use ndiswrapper tool to set up a wireless communication.For this , it helps:

Once you have a driver in place, install the (graphical) NetworkManager application:

This handles switching between networks etc.
