Hello,
Thanks!

Could it be a probelem of firmware version ?
How can I know what is the zd1211 firmware version I have ?

I have these files under /lib/firmware/zd1211/:

ls -al /lib/firmware/zd1211/
total 72
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2008-05-14 19:48 .
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 2008-05-06 13:35 ..
