Internet Problem > Please Help

[Faceofjoe]

I just installed Linux Ubuntu Desktop Edition on my Acer Aspire T671-TB7Z, the installation went smooth but the internet is not working

When I login the background blinks 3 times, and I can't move the mouse, after that I can. But the real problem is I am not very experienced with Linux but the wireless icon does show up and I can access wireless networks, I am connected, but when I load a page on Firefox it says it is on "work offline" so I unticked it and tried again. Nothing worked again, this is weird because I am using it now to post this thread on my sisters netbook and on the pc that has the problem has Windows 7 Ultimate as a dual boot and the internet works fine on that too, the only internet problem I have is linux

Further Information:
- It might be due because I need a driver for:
- Atheros Client Installion Program
- Cisco EAP-Fast Module
- Ralink RT2860 Wireless LAN Card
If it is, how do I transfer them to Linux
