I thought the mobile usb modem would work with Linux but so far no joy. The home box doesn't care what is hooked to it but the mobile USB is a different story. Anyone have any suggestions on where to start. Crossover puked on trying to install the windows divers and control app. I'm running about 0 for 0 trying to get unsupported apps working on Crossover. This should be able to work without playing windows games with it. I have read that Wimax modem drivers have been in the Kernel for while now.</div> </div></blockquote><div><br><br>Depends on who makes the chips. The company behind the USB device in this case is Beceem, and they aren't being very cooperative with developers, after all, the device still only has BETA drivers for Mac.</div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><blockquote type="cite"><div class="gmail_quote"><div><br>The devices which have the best support are the Intel devices. Most of those are mini-PCI (targeting netbooks, appliances). There are reportedly devices that takes USB and allow you to plug in the mini-PCI cards. Right now this seems the most likely route, unless Intel is working on a USB device themselves.<br></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Are there good pci cards with Linux drivers for Wimax?</div><br><blockquote type="cite"><div class="gmail_quote"><div>Third party is allowed on the Clear network, you just have to have your MAC address associated with a Clear account.<br><br>Don't count on the device you bought with the service to work with Linux.
