Sorry for the very late reply, I've been kinda overloaded.

I dug on your logfiles, but unfortunately it is quite difficult to tell
what's going on. That user space daemon is a pain, let me tell you...

Let's try this:

in a terminal, run  as root

$ wimaxd -i wmx0 -d   # keeps it in the foregrounf

on another one, as root:

$ wimaxcu scan
$ wimaxcu connect network X

and let's see what is printed on the daemon's output

I am wondering if the thing gets to the WiMAX authentication part or
not.
