When I was still on 11.1, I bought a USB dongle ZyXEL G-220 v2, and worked from 
the get go.

Yast found it as soon as I plugged it in, loaded the driver and I was off and 
running in no time.

Before that, I bought a "high priced" D-Link USB one from Radio Shack and was - supposed - to work with Linux - BUT - 
could NEVER get it to work.

So my gut feeling is that - all - name branded stuff is NOT always better.
