Just as you say, Planex doesn't support this product in Linux. But, I have confirmed that this product worked in the following environment. This is short guide of "How to set up GW-USNano for XLink Kai on Ubuntu 12.04".
- PLANEX GW-USNano (Wireless Chipsets: Realtek RTL8188SU, VID:2019, PID:AB28)
- Ubuntu 12.04 i386 (3.2.0-24-generic-pae, 32-bit kernel)
- ndiswrapper 1.57
- Kaiengine for Linux 7.4.18
- MONSTER HUNTER PORTABLE 3rd
- PlayStation Portable (PSP-3000)

If you try any methods used on this guide you do so at your own risk.

Find the Windows XP driver in the resulting directory:

Known issues:
- In the case of ubuntu 12.04 amd64 (64-bit kernel), ndiswrapper and Windows 64-bit driver doesn't work. When ndiswrapper module loads Windows driver, Ubuntu hangs up. xD
- Cannot play SSID swapping games.

I think it's compatible.
You need 32-bit Linux kernel, ndiswrapper and Windows driver.
