Default Can't install WiFi DWA 120, but works on mandriva.

I tried to setup WiFi DWA-120, with ndiswrapper driver
> ndiswrapper -l
neta5agu : driver installed
device (07D1:3A0D) present

> modprobe ndiswrapper
> iwconfig
lo no wireless extensions.
eth0 no wireless extensions.

Why I don't see wlan0 ? I did it on mandriva and had no problems.

I tried to reboot and no wlan0 interface.

I found the link
HCL/Network Adapters (Wireless) - openSUSE
"D-Link DWA-110 G USB ver 1.0"
In description:

Very mixed experiences: (1) Works out of the box. Set up connections. Download wifi-radar and it connects. Did not need to install drivers. (2) rt73usb driver got loaded but didn't work until ralink-firmware package was installed from online repo (this rpm is now in 11.1 media), and even then could not associate with AP - "authentication frame received from xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx, but not in authenticate state -ignored"

But I don't understand what I should do to setup my WiFi.

Just tried:
ndiswrapper-1.54-32.1.i586.rpm
ndiswrapper-kmp-pae-1.54_2.6.27.7_9.1-32.1.i586.rpm
from:
Index of /repositories/driver:/wireless/openSUSE_11.1/i586


The device is created. But I'm never able to ping the
access point itself. WiFi doesn't work correctly, data is not sent/received.

Try Using the driver from the vista folder in your CD.
