Upgrade Compability
Hello,
My laptop is a Dell 5401 with I5-9400h. It ships with a SIM card tray, but when I try it, it doesn't work. With a little research, I found out that the laptop should have wwan module attached to it. And my laptop has a place for it, but it's still empty.
My question is, what wwan model should I get to work in my device?

Before buying any WWAN card, ensure the antenna leads for it are built into the system. If they're not, you're better off with an external USB WWAN adapter, as installing the leads most often means replacing the display assembly.
For a specific WWAN adapter, start with your service provider -- they likely have models they support.
