If it is a pci or pcmcia card, try running lspci and see if it is in the output. If it is a USB card, sometimes lsusb does the trick. If both of those fail, you might try installing lshw, which has a gui version (gtk-lshw) that should identify it.

I don't have the device. It wanted to study the existence of drivers before buying it!

Interesting to know to the lshw command.

Thanks in any case.

If you don't have the device, I'm afraid that Google is probably the only tool to identify the chipset. Good luck!

For your interest. I bought the LevelOne wnc0301usb v3 adapter and takes to the Ralink rt73 chip which already I made work in another D-Link device (serialmonkey driver). Cool!

Information extra:

LevelOne wnc0301usb v3, ID 148f:2573, driver Ralink 'rt73'
LevelOne wnc0301usb v1-v2, driver ZyDas 'zd1211' (not verified)
D-Link dwl-g122 c1 v3, ID 07d1:3c03, driver Ralink 'rt73'

These devices can enter conflict with drivers by defect of Ubuntu: rt73usb and rt2570. The file is due to use /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist to avoid the load of this drivers.
