Whatever you could share with me would be greatly appreciated - You
can contact me at ngirard @ gmail.com if you want to keep it off the
list. Thanks a lot in advance.

Thanks all for your answer, that helps a lot.
I had to do the same trick with the mass storage for my Sprint EVDO
U720 dongle. I had one of the early version and it started to work
after a firmware upgrade as you said.
What I need at the end of the day is a WiMAX device (preferably a
dongle or PCMCIA) with drivers available for Linux. I went to the
Asus website but they don't seem to offer the option. Did you get it
through regular sales channels or directly from the engineering
department ? Seems like it is only available in Asia or Russia (I'm
in the U.S)
I would not mind going the Beceem/Motorola road if it is available.
My experience with early test version of the PMCIA Beceem card was
horrendous, even under Windows. Did you get the hardware/software
through your connections at your previous job ? How would one get
his hands on the software/hardware combo ?

I have tried it. I can get out of the mass storage mode, but I don't
know how to make the dongle go back into the normal mode. My Asus
contact told me that they have some new software and firmware that can
do better, but their engineering team is really slow to address my
question.
Any way, Beceem and Motorola software and hardware can address my
need,
so I gave up on Intel/Asus.

Talking without having seen it, it should work if we can get the
dongle
to exit the mass storage mode and enter the normal mode. We'd need
asus
to explain how to do that, or someone should try the suggestions Dan
Williams made of using an SCSI eject command on it.
