Subject: Very slow instructions for wireless network setup needed
Sorry. Entire thing wouldn't fit in title. I need very slow detailed instructions on how to install my linksys wireless-n (WMP300N) router to my ubuntu 8.04 amd 64-bit ubuntu cd installed computer. There is a bunch of jumbled guides on how to do this (all using ndiswrapper, which is sitting in a file on a cd in my linux pc and im trying to figure out how to work it) but I thought I'd come to the best to get a finalized short step guide on how to do this. Please keep it as simple as possible, or my head might explode.

If you haven't already, check https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported To see whether and how you can use your wireless card with Ubuntu. If you do need to do ndiswrapper, this article will tell you the basics, as well as where to find more information: http://www.linux.com/feature/118555

I'm sure this thread should solve the problem. It has pretty detailed instructions on using Ndiswrapper to get the WMP300N to work: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=539208 Cheers!
