I have the same problem. In my case, the installer offered the extra D-Link card as the second option in its list (don't know if the ordering is relevant), and the installed system wanted to use the VIA card integrated onto the motherboard. The VIA card doesn' t have a cable attached, since it worked unreliably when I upgraded my home LAN to gigabit. I didn't bother to disable the integrated card in BIOS, to be able to easily swap between it and the D-Link card when testing.

Explicitly choosing the D-Link card in the NetworkManager applet made things work.

(This was with the 20070925.1 gutsy-alternate-i386.iso I'm testing today.)
