lsusb doesn't say much:

Bus 007 Device 006: ID 07d1:3303 D-Link System

Au contraire, my friend, it says it all. This means its a Realtek 8192su chipset. Which means you're out of luck because I found the following in linux-libre's deblob:

reject_firmware drivers/staging/rtl8192su/r8192S_firmware.c

Please report this to the FSF hardware list. Also let linuxwireless.co.uk know that their recommendation is not what you expected.

P.S.: Please keep this on the list.
