What wireless card ? Can you post the output of sudo lspci -v here ?
I have a Dell Inspiron 1525 n-Series laptop (Yes, one of those few
laptops in the market which come without Winblows installed).
The wireless card is a Broadcomm 43xx and the corresponding kernel
module is bcm43xx. When I last attempted to get my network card
working, the module wouldn't bind to the device for some reason.
However, my friends have got these working, although I don't know what
he did. Some quick google results:

They all seem to suggest NDIS wrapper, although there is an
alternative native module.
