How to add 3/4G Network to Dell Inspiron 15 (7577)
How to make a 7577 can access 3/4G networks provided by Spring/T-Mobile directly, like a phone?
To our current understanding, we need to add an extra model to the laptop. If so, then:
1. What are the models of the model are supported, like LN930?
2. Where to insert the SIM card if needed.
3. How to configure it, or what are the programe needed to start the access?
(Here we interested in an build-in way, rather than using cellphone-hot-spot or wifi ways)

It does not look like this model supports an internal WWAN card or SIM card. You'll need an external WWAN modem adapter - USB. For example ONLY -- you will need to verify what adapters your service provider supports. By no means will all of these work with all carriers.

models of the model?
That makes no sense.
There is no option for a WWAN card. Where do you think it would go in the laptop?

@ejn63 Thanks for the reply.
Just opened its back-cover, and there is indeed no obvious slot for extra WWAN card or SIM card. This may suggested what you said. Good to know anyway, :) Looking for an Dongle now...
@ieee488 The 'models', emm... Sorry for the confusion, "Types" may be more precise.
