I just found this mailing list and looked thru the archives. I live in San Antonio, Tx so I am asking about compatibility with the Clear.com service provider.
I was unable to find any compatibility matrix for wimax cards, laptops and linux operating systems. So #1, Is LinuxWimax part of the Ubuntu 10.4 release? It seems like just a few lines in a terminal window are all that is needed. But it wasnt OS specific. I am correct? The commands are universal? Any compatibility possible with Older Ubuntus or is it just too painful? How would I find what brands/models of laptops are compatible with an Intel Centrino Advanced-N WiMAX 6250 Adapter, Model: 622ANHMW -- a half card that I saw for sale here in the United States. I Dont want to buy an engineering sample from Hong Kong. Does 622ANHMW work in a full size slot like on my Dell D820? How about in a Dell Vostro notebook? How about Lenovo Notebooks? Should I stay away from 5150 cards? How about the 5250? Are BIOS upgrades necessary when using Linux firmware loaders? I am trying to avoid using the clear usb dongle and windows. I am willing to purchase, test and post results, but not if it is known to be incompatible. Thanks, Othniel Mark Graichen
