    I'm curious what needs to be added to an E6510 with the WiMax card to allow Verizon broadband use?

    WiMax only operates on Sprint/Clear's network and there's no way you can use that chip with Verizon's network. You can buy a CDMA WWAN card to replace the WiMax card though, and since they're mostly standardized it should work in the E6510.

    Since Clear/Sprint happen to be nationwide, why can't I "see" a network when I search for it? I have a company MiFi through sprint and it works fine. ?
