Perhaps the software previously installed for the Belkin card has set it to WEP?
Try going into the settings for the Belkin and see if you can change them to WPA.
Netgear do various usb adaptors varying from MA101 to WG111, the MA101 doesn't do WPA, the WG111 does, check the Belkin site for your specific model of adaptor and see if it says so there.
Whether you use Windows software or Virgin Media Wireless software, if the card can't do WPA you'll never connect to the router as it's pre-configured for WPA.
