    Recently I found out that my college campus has a wimax antenna and that i have to buy a wimax card. I can get internal laptop cards for pretty cheap from intel. The southbridge on my computer is HM55 and i wasnt sure if any of the cards would work on my laptop. My laptop has three antenna wires and the current card only uses two of them. My laptop model is the Asus G60JX. Thanks in advance for any input.
