Default Belkin Wireless NIC losing connection

Hey guys, just registered here so be kind now

I've got a problem with my newly bought Belkin-card (believe it's called fd5700 or something like that, pci-version) cuz it keeps losing connection to my AP. My laptop (which also got a belkin fd5700-something but standard laptop-port-thingie (can't remember the english word for it atm). On the laptop I'm running Ubuntu Linux, and it never loses connection, have been running it for the past 3 months with no problems whatsoever. Now I bought a card for my desktop computer cuz I got tired of wires lying all over the apartment, but it refuses to work as good as the laptop one.

After I get d/c it also refuses to find any wireless connections whatsoever, but when it's working it finds about 4-5 of them (neighbours and mine).

Anyone got any idea what I'm talking about? ^^ plz help me cuz it's darn annoying to reboot every 20 minutes or so... windows should be able to handle uptimes of at least an hour imo

Try turning off power management for the card under its property page in Device Manager. Also try using the latest drivers off Belkin's website.
