Did you install a WWAN card and a SIM that's activated with your cell provider, and install the drivers for the WWAN card?

Unless you  installed one, you don't have a WWAN card.  Contact your service provider first to see what they support.  Then purchase accordingly.

You do need a WWAN card in order to use a cell network.

Before going further, check inside the system for the antenna leads necessary for the adapter -- if those are not present, you either need to consider a USB adapter instead, or will need to replace the display assembly in favor of one having the leads built into it.

It's whatever company you pay for your monthly cell service.

To use a WWAN connection, you must have:

1.  The internal antenna connections for a WWAN card,

2.  A WWAN card that's compatible with whatever cellular data service you subscribe to.

3.  A SIM card from your service provider (generally not the same card you use in your phone).

If you need to know what cards you can use, contact your service provider.

I would also suggest that before installing a WWAN card, you contact a good local computer shop that can help you with the installation.
