There is a driver built in the kernel for this adapter. And it should work. Though a quick forum search gives information http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=285184 it doesn't work pretty good.
There's also a bug report available https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=815377 but there's no bugfix or even workaround yet.

Wath is the solution in this case ?

Is it the same laptop with Ubuntu you are posting here with? If Ubuntu works for you stay with Ubuntu.

No it is another laptop !

Are there any other variants? Wired connection for example?
