Suse 10.1- I would have thrown my laptop out if not connected to network cable

Hey all,
Alright my problem this time. Probarly simple for some but id appreciate the help. Ive been using suse 10.1 on my Clevo D47EV. Specs can been seen in the following web page:

www.clevo.com.tw/products/D47EV.asp

After recently investing in a Dlink DSL-G604T i cant install my wlan. My wlan has never been recognised by suse. Apparantly my hardware is 802.11b USB-400 USB Prism2/2.5/3 which the driver is linux-wlan-ng. I cant seem to find a suse driver but have installed wlan-kmp-default, with no change. In Knetworkmanager ive always had an option to disable wireless, aswell as bring up a screen for wireless networks but there is no networks on it. I got to yast>network devices and only my ethernet connection is there. Ive tried adding new network device and that didnt get me anywhere. Please help, im considering reinstalling windows just to check the switch on the front is for a wireless connection and i didnt get ripped off. Any help is appreciated.
