You will have to find the drivers for it... I am still confused on the whole 'knoppix driver' issue though....

Interestingly enough, I'm having exactly the same problem. With Knoppix too. My network card's manufacturer (Network Everywhere...I believe they are owned by Linksys) does not support Linux at all.

Where should I search for drivers?

Sorry. I wasn't very specific. This is a NetworkEverywhere PCMCIA Wireless Notebook Adapter. Model NWP11B. I know. Cheap low-end device. Picked it up for 70 Canadian.
