I installed a wireless PCI card (b) on my second WindowsXP PC system. It
shows it is connected to my main computer (using  Linksys wireless router)
wireless router signal, and shows bytes sent but 0 bytes received. Wireless
router has encryption turned off. What am I doing or not doing wrong? Very
frustrating, wireless seems very hard to set up.

I also am able to choose between Infrastructure or AdHoc mode for network
mode on the wireless card, neither of which I understand. If I choose Adhoc
mode I do not see any data sent or received as that is greyed out as
automatic or unavailable.
