Use "lspci -v" to determine what Linux thinks it is.  My A30p has this:

02:02.0 Network controller: Harris Semiconductor Prism 2.5 Wavelan chipset (rev 01)
        Subsystem: Action Tec Electronics Inc: Unknown device 0406

I've had much better luck with the wlan-ng driver rather than the
Orinoco driver, although the Orinoco driver is easier to configure.
