Sorry, not to be of much further help.

The dlink website shows that there are 3 revisions of this card.
Each revision has different software requirements.

The half dozen or so devices that I have tested with the latest ndiswrapper have all worked pretty much the same.

After ndiswrapper -i your_driver's_inf
and doing a modprobe ndiswrapper
then the device appears. You can see the unconfigured device by typing iwconfig without any parameters.

If you don't see a unconfigured card at this step then remove the module and unload ndiswrapper and try another driver.

If you do see a device by only using iwconfig then you can proceed to configure the card with your settings, using manual commands or the GUI.

I have heard it reported that on some machines, the wireless cards may need extra boot options to get the card recognized, Irq conflicts or such.  I know that can be difficult if you have such a machine.
