The major difference between the two are:
Zyxel Supports: 64/128/256-bit WEP/WPA/WPA2 Encryption, and newer chips.
OPEN304W Supports: 64/128 bit WEP Encryption only.
Actually from the User Guide posted by HeXa on that thread (http://www.opennw.com/_pdf/OPEN304W_UserGuide.pdf), it does support 64/128/256-bit WEP/WPA/WPA2 encryption. So technically, it's the same.
The user guide you posted, is about the general driver software that supports WPA/WPA2 card.
Here is the actual specification of the network card
Actually I got the same user guide (http://www.opennw.com/_pdf/OPEN304W_UserGuide.pdf) on the CD that came with the wireless card from broadband gear, not just a generic network adaptor user manual.
The reason the manual looks generic is because the adaptor itself it a generic adaptor re-branded (as they do with some of their hardware) to OpenNW.
How does the Zyxel compare with the Open Networks offer here, which is $7 cheaper?
