im not sure what the "adsl2=+starter kit" but when i installed my d-link, i used wine to install the driver(or you can just copy all the needed driver files from windows) and then i used ndiswrapper to run it, it may be buggy

check this site out for more info if you choose to go this route:

Can you help with this problem?
