Wimax Drivers are builtin to the system (Ubuntu9.10 32Bit Server) I copied the firmware and kernel was able to see the device and created wmx0 Device. i2400m-fw-usb-1.4.sbcf to /lib/firmware I had to install 2 Packages from Intel to make the device work on the node Intel-WiMAX-Binary-Supplicant-1.4.0 WiMAX-Network-Service-1.4.0

Wimax Network Service has to be configured and installed. Installed the linux headers, pkg-config,

./configure —with-i2400m=/usr/src/wimax-i2400m-1.4.1/ \

—sysconfdir=/etc \ —localstatedir=/var \ —mandir=/usr/share/man \ —prefix=/usr/local

make make install

For the binary supplicant I just ran the ./install_supplicant.sh install

Start the Wimax Service /etc/init.d/wimax start To Get the status of the device wimaxcu status

Turned The radio on wimaxcu ron

Scan the for a network wimaxcu scan wide

Traces from the logfile indicating everything is working as expected
