Belkin F5D7000 wireless card missing firmware

[wordout]

I have just installed Mint 12 on a Dell Dimension 1100. It has a Belkin F5D7000 wireless card installed. After the install of Linux, the computer will not connect to the internet using wireless. I have done the usual software updates and still no joy. Under the wireless conection it says device not ready firmware missing. I know the card works ok as it was running fine on windows xp before the Linux install.

Any help would be appreciated.

Tried the Synaptic but it never worked, marked for installed but still says firmware missing. here are the outputs of lspci, lsub and lsmod. hope it makes sense to you. thanks

I've giving up trying to get this card working now, can anyone recommended a PCI wireless card that will just work in my Dell dimension without any hassle to find drivers etc.....
