First report the SMC version and type of your card (PCMCIA or USB). Probably it has a Prism2 chipset, so you have to be sure that your kernel is supporting it, although this depends on the distro you are using. Post also the output of "dmesg" and tell us if you know something about "ndiswrapper". Without data, we cannot help you.

Greetings
