Raspberry Pi and AWUS036H wireless card

Have been working at this for some 5 days now and now at least the Pi boots up w/o Ethernet and the AW blinks green for several minutes and i can see that it has been assigned an IP through my home router by opening my PCLinuxOS FireFox browser. However after several minutes the AW goes dark and i have to connect the Ethernet cable to obtain access. The card itself is an AWUS036H.

i tried the .txt file with the commands, but my Term reports that the " files is busy". - very informative... So we are going to try and post the results of each command. i'm doing this on the Pi itself since i can't figure out out to copy/paste bet. the Pi and my home compu (we using ssh and vinagre).
