hi, ...donno about the dlink. my only experience was going down to the local comp usa and getting a generic 10mbps card for ~$30, which worked "outta" the box, in 3 different laptops (from clones to the outlandish sony picturebook), and on kernels 2.0.36 to 2.4.0! the box just says, "pcmcia network pc card for notebooks. ...complies to ieee 802.3 10base-t ethernet and pcmcia release 2.1... system requirements: ms-dos/win[dont]. oh, yeah, ...about the dongle...seems to be sturdy enough but i pamper my tools (computers, cars, etc.) so that part of it hasn't been put through anything too severe. hth. bentley taylor. // -- open source is the best source. linux.
