Using HP Mobile Broadband (select models only)
An HP Mobile Broadband Module is a wireless wide area network (WWAN) device that provides access
to information wherever mobile network operator service is available. Using HP Mobile Broadband
requires a network service provider (called a
mobile network operator ), which in most cases is a mobile
phone network operator. Coverage for HP Mobile Broadband is similar to mobile phone voice coverage.
When used with mobile network operator service, HP Mobile Broadband gives you the freedom to stay
connected to the Internet, send e-mail, or connect to your corporate network whether you are on the
road or outside the range of Wi-Fi hotspots.
The activation requirements for Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) and Global System for Mobile
Communications (GSM) are different as CDMA requires an MEID and GSM requires a SIM plus the
SIM information.
HP Mobile Broadband supports the following technologies:
●
HSPA (High Speed Packet Access) module, which provides access to networks based on the
Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) telecommunications standard.
●
EV-DO (Evolution Data Optimized), which provides access to networks based on the code division
multiple access (CDMA) telecommunications standard.
You may need the HP Mobile Broadband Module serial number to activate mobile broadband service.
The serial number is printed on a label inside the battery bay of your computer. Some mobile network
operators require the use of a subscriber identity module (SIM). A SIM contains basic information about
you, such as a personal identification number (PIN), as well as network information. Some computers
include a SIM that is preinstalled in the battery bay. If the SIM is not preinstalled, it may be provided in
the packet of HP Mobile Broadband information provided with your computer, or the mobile network
operator may provide it separately from the computer.
For information on inserting and removing the SIM, refer to the “Inserting a SIM” and “Removing a SIM”
sections in this chapter.
For information on HP Mobile Broadband and how to activate service with a preferred mobile network
operator, refer to the HP Mobile Broadband information included with your computer. For additional
information, see the HP Web site at

Inserting a SIM
CAUTION: When inserting a SIM, position the card with the slanted corner as shown in the illustration.
If a SIM is inserted backwards or upside down, the battery may not snap into place properly and could
damage the SIM and the SIM connector.
To prevent damage to the connectors, use minimal force when inserting a SIM.
To insert a SIM:
1. Shut down the computer. If you are not sure whether the computer is off or in Hibernation, turn the
computer on by sliding the power switch. Then shut down the computer through the operating
system.
2. Close the display.
3. Disconnect all external devices connected to the computer.
4. Unplug the power cord from the AC outlet.
