RTL8139 is the chip that is used by DLink cards. Most likely you have a problem with your card. Try getting another one.
RealTek cards also use that chipset.
This is off-topic but I think Realtek does not make any card on its own. They just make the 8139 (and other) chips which are used by different clone manufacturers. Dlink is one of them.
