I've actually used this one specific product.
If you're using it on Windows, make sure you installed the driver from the CD. If you can plug the computer to a wired connection, download the drivers from this site. Some people have reported problem with it using Windows Vista. There is a beta driver for it on the download page, but I hear it doesn't always work. If you do have Windows Vista, you'll probably need to buy another product.

If you're using Linux, particularly Ubuntu Linux, it will work fine on versions 6.06, 6.10, and 7.10. It has problem on 7.04. I haven't tried it on other distributions.

There are also some issues connecting to a secured wireless router.

Laptop died and now I cant connect my desktop with the belkin usb adapter. It just keeps saying aquiring network address.

Use the Ethernet cable to verify the router or modem is working and connects to the Internet. If so, then check your wireless adapter in the desk top through device manager - it should detect the Belkin. Also, verify you are entering the correct WEP keys to access the wireless connection to the router or modem - sometimes it gets typed in wrong.

Wireless network

Turn off the firewall, and then try connecting, if still the same then try to open the router configuration and change the channel to 1 or 11, or try setting up a new wireless network.
If your belkin adapter is external, then try reinstalling the software of your adapter by running the installation disc.
