Can any of you help me identify the Realtek chip in this device so that the USB ID can be added to the right driver?
It's a 802.11n USB nano dongle from ISY. I only have the dongle for short time, so I may not be able to test it
myself if it takes some time. usb-devices and lsusb -v output is attached.

Is it a ISY IWL 2000 device? Then it could be supported by rtl8192cu:

<http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/isy-iwl-2000-n150-standard-wird-nicht-erkannt/#post-4641162>

Note:
you'll have to have to correct firmware in place as well. Either
you have to install a realtek firmware package (rtlwifi) for your
distro... Or download it manually (filename: rtlwifi/rtl8192cufw.bin
<http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/dwmw2/linux-firmware.git>)
and put it into the correct place (/lib/firmware/(rtlwifi))

You also need a kernel 2.6.39 or newer. If you have one older that 3.4, I would suggest using compat-wireless.
