Not listed there as far as product id 3304....
BUT! manufacturer RealTek ID 07d1 is there, and the
only USB device made by D-Link with RealTek chip AND 801.11N AND USB is
the R8192s chip,
so I assume I have the R8192s, which is not supported by the kernel.
However, I have found no match for this product id 3304 from vendor 07d1
