SUSE 10.2 detects this USB device and automatically set's it up for you as an Ethernet device using the bcm43xx module. Problem is it doesn't work with this module and settings. I deleted them in YAST and used Ndiswrapper (1.37 latest at the time) and the Dr71WU.INF driver. This only took 10 mins to setup and works brilliantly.

Works great. Had some problems with this one (hardware A1), but a bit of probing with ndiswrapper and it's functioning like a charm.
