That probably means it has an small storage device for the drivers (normally
for windows).
Can you do a lsusb -v (as root) and send the result?

Yes, Ubuntu incluyded it in the distro. If you are going to use newer drivers,
you need to wipe'em:
$ rm -f /lib/modules/2.6.24-21-generic/ubuntu/wireless/wimax-i2400m
$ depmod -a
does the trick, then you can install the new ones.
