It's not supported by the 2.6.32 kernel. Installing a 3.2 kernel and
firmware-ralink from squeeze-backports should make it work.

While I was installing I got an error message about some missing

So the first step is getting the firmware for the WLAN card. I've seen

You can download the firmware from here:
http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/firmware-realtek
copy it in a flash disc and use it during the installation process... the
installation process should give you an option to do so
