Connect to a cellular network (for selected models)

To connect a 4G cellular data network, you must have a wireless wide area network (WWAN) card and a
nano-SIM card installed. The nano-SIM card might come with your computer by countries or regions. If no
nano-SIM card is shipped, you need to purchase one from authorized service carriers.
Notes:
• Depending on the model, your computer might have no WWAN card installed. The 4G cellular service is
provided by authorized mobile service carriers in some countries or regions. You must have a cellular plan
from a service carrier to connect to the cellular network. The cellular data plan might vary by location.
• For details on Linux WWAN status for your platform, refer to
