Hello Linux Users!

I have just installed Ubuntu and it is great. The only problem I have is that I cannot use my wireless internet, because Linksys is meant to be run on Windows, not Ubuntu. I can access the internet via a direct link, but I cannot use my wireless network.

You must be using a newer Linksys driver that hasn't been supported yet as I've had ones work for me before. There is a tool I believe that will let you use Windows wireless drivers for Linux that's called ndiswrapper. I've never used it, but I believe if you're looking to try this method you'll want to install ndisgtk which is a graphical interface for it.
