Hey

It looks like D-Link uses Ralink 2600 chipset.
you can download the Linux driver for your wireless card here.

I heard ‘SuSE’, and ‘Service Pack’ in the same sentence. I quit. The world is coming to an end. Microsoft sponsored arms feature a mushroom cloud in the shape of the Windows logo. Nuclear war! There goes my career!

so after downloading how should I install it??

you can read the instructions in the README file.
Here is a copy/past from the file.

==================
Build Instructions

1. Unpack the driver sources and go to the Module directory:
      $ tar -xvzf rt61-cvs-daily.tar.gz
      $ cd ./rt61-cvs-YYYYMMDDHH/Module

2. Compile the driver sources:
      $ make

3. Install the driver (as root):
      # make install

4. Check your install (load module, bring interface up and scan):
      # modprobe rt61 [debug=<mask>]

    <mask> is a decimal or hex number. See TESTING file. Ignored
    if driver compiled without debug support.

    # ifconfig wlan0 up
    # iwlist wlan0 scan

If everything is ok, you should see a list of surrounding Access
Points. It means you can jump to the configuration section.
Otherwise, check out the following install notes…
