oh before i forget, ubuntu has this power conservation thing which
limits the power output to the usb, so you need to do the following:

0) Compile and install the rndis drivers
1) create 99-custom.rules in the /etc/udev/rules.d   folder
2) insert the following text into 99-custom.rules file:

BUS=="usb", SYSFS{idProduct}=="13b1", SYSFS{idVendor}=="0baf", RUN
+="/bin/sh -c 'echo 20 > /sys/%p/device/bConfigurationValue'


3) save the file
4) remove and insert the wireless card
