Hi and welcome.

The coffee lounge is not the right place for technical questions.
About your wireless problem, I suggest to read this sticky first and post the information in a new thread in the wireless section. There are some very skilled members that are capable of answering your question.
There are a lot of distro's to choose from, but your wireless problem is probably occurring with most of them, has to do with drivers for the wireless card most of the time. But once you have the solution for Ubuntu it will be the solution for other distro's as well.
Enjoy the forum.

I have a Dell Mini9 that connected flawlessly, and easily with my linksys router. I have had no problems with wireless on this computer with Ubuntu factory install. What kind of problems are you having?
