There seem to be issues with wifi in Hardy. (I had a problem with a previously perfectly OK atheros pcmcia card). I think the Dell 1525 may have a Broadcom chipset (unlike the 1525n that has ubuntu preinstalled, which uses Intel). Anyway, there's stuff in the forum. e.g http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=774717 where someone reckoned to fix it with ndiswrapper. There are others, too.
