hi
I have a ubuntu 10.10 release
Intel 6250 , with i2400m driver - my device is an external PCIe mini card
adapter attached to laptop by USB ( the device works on windows and picks up
network)
All the required steps in Linuxwimax.org
Build works fine
seems to load Wimax drivers can lsusb the card at the start and its
identified.

I start wimaxd and get the following

I can still wimaxcu scan , but finds nothing
ifconfig sees the interface

iwconfig has
wmx0 no wireless extensions
After a few mins the device disappears of lsusb list.
I can do wimaxcu scan still
I can do wimaxcu ron and it says radio on
but it finds no network.
and when remove the usb cable from system I get this in syslog
Dec 8 16:44:15 kerry-laptop kernel: [ 3154.630449] usb 1-5: USB disconnect,

So the system still sees it when its disconnected.
Any idea why its deactivating with wmx0 not ready
