Peter, why not try http://www.linuxant.com driverloader . I don't have a
problem paying for a Linux driver when there is no decent FLOSS
equivalent. My Broadcom is now supported in Fedora 8 so no longer need
driverloader. I do the same with http://www.turboprint.de/english.html
printer drivers for my Canon MP780.

I have had Ubuntu working with the zyxel dongle but I only tried WEP, so
I would switch to WEP if I had the same problem.

John.
