It's my pleasure to contact you.
Actually I bought a new laptop this monday which support WiMAX Network using Intel Centrino Wireless N + WiMAX 6150.
It pretty good works in the preinstall Windows 7. I can swich the mode of Wireless Card for WLAN or WiMAX using "Intel Proset Connection Uitility"
But in the Linux, Kernel just figure out the this wireless card for WiFi network only.
I think that if i want to start wimax operation, kenel has to recognize it can works for not only wifi but also wifi.
More specifically, When i command "rfkill list", It shows just Wireless LAN phy 0 as follows result.
===================================================================================
0: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
"lspci -nnk"
01:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Intel Corporation Centrino Wireless-N + WiMAX 6150 [8086:0885] (rev 5f)
Subsystem: Intel Corporation Centrino Wireless-N + WiMAX 6150 BGN [8086:1305]
Kernel driver in use: iwlwifi
Kernel modules: iwlwifi
====================================================================================
As you can see in above result, Network controller is clearly founded and use iwlwifi driver...
but logically it just operate for wireless LAN mode only...
How can I switch WiFi to WiMAX?
If there is any advice or suggestion that you could give me to resolve this problem, it's going to be a huge help for my research.
I will really appreciate if you give a response.
Thank you for giving me your valuable time.
Best regards,
Gyusun
Thanks
