For a moment I forgot that you have a Wimax device - it will most likely not work with a serial driver ...

As for a Linux driver, I really don't know if there is one for your chipset. I just googled but found mostly information regarding Intel chipsets.

I don't think it's possible to create a generic driver for these devices bcause it's up to the manufacturers which protocol they use to talk to their device ...

Well Josh it seems it does not work around now let me check with the Mediatek company may be they will
give us some lead to work around with protocols.

Other way around if u got some information about wimax usb card to work in Linux u can update me by PM me.
