Dell :: 5530 WWAN KM266 PCIe Mini Card 7.2Mbps?
Sep 10, 2009
just received a Dell 5530 WWAN Mobile Broadband HSDPA KM266 PCIe mini-card which bought from a vendor on ebay today
Owning an XPS M1330, it took a little trial & error finding compatible drivers and the appropriate SW, but I managed it by feeding Dell's website with various Notebook models in order to get to said drivers & SW.
The SW (Ericsson) came from the Dell Mini 9 section (because the ebay vendor told me that's where he got the card in the first place):
Title : Communications:Dell Wireless 5530 HSPA Mini-Card Application
Version : A00
OEM Name : Dell
OEM Ver : 5.2.1045.43
Computers : Inspiron - 910, 1210

I got a big problem.
I can't activate my 5530 WWAN Card.
The software switch Fn+F2 can only turn WLAN and bluetooth on/off.
And there are no hardware switch on the mini 12.
And when I'm in the dell wireless manager, and I press activate. It tells me that I new to push a button so that the card is activated.

Can anyone tell other WWAN card supported besides UN2400 (FN556AA) ?
The Antenna, SIM Slot and Mini PCIE slot already there...

I have a Studio XPS 16, and I ordered it without the above mentioned WWAN card. I'm going to pick up one on Ebay, I assume it works pretty well.
I'm in Australia, wondering if any other Australian owners have got this WWAN card working with Bigpond 3G broadband.

So My Dell 1555 has an option to put a WWAN Card in it. Now my questions are
1) WWAN is basically stick a SIM card in the back of my battery and browse internet right??
2) Is WWAN GPS enabled as well? So Can i use it with some special software (which one??) to locate my position and probably give direction? .......

Anyone got the new 64 bit Windows 7 driver (not the Vista driver) for 5530 WWAN card on E6400 working?.
The driver installed fine on my E6400 (running 64 bit Windows 7), but Wireless Manager (downloaded from Sony Ericsson website) stopped working saying it can't find any wireless device (probably because it can't recognize the new driver)..
Then I went to get Control Point Connection Manager and noticed that there's none for Windows 7. So how do you use the WWAN card without a client?..

The newest firmware for the 5530 HSPA Mini-Card won't install on my XPS1640.
Have you had success installing it?
This is the driver from the Dell site:
The driver is called Dell_Wireless-5530-HSPA-Mini_A01_R212325_firmware.exe
Executing this file unpacks it:
...and continues to start the installation:
...pressing OK will give me this:

I got my Dell about 2 weeks ago with Vista pre installed. I then took the leap and installed Win 7 32bit.
With the upgrade all is well except the mobile broadband device.
The Mobile broadband application that dell supplies for win 7 is very primitive with very unstable network searching and connecting.
I was just wondering what the latest version software for win 7 is and where to look for an firmware upgrade if indeed there is one?

I'm thinking about picking up a usb wireless n adapter; which means I won't be needing the internal wireless nic. Since that's a mini PCIe slot, I was wondering if anyone has tried replacing that with one of the many SSDs floating around the web...
2 main questions I have about those:
If they're mini-pciE, why are there sata versions and pata versions out there? There's no sata or pata connector on these cards it seems, the pci-e connector is all there is. Do they somehow use the sata/pata controller on the motherboard via the pci-e bus?
2nd question; would there be any way to boot from one of these? The bios has a bunch of options for booting up, network, usb, usb floppy, etc... but none for mini pci-e or anything like that...
Laptop is a presario C500, more precisely c551nr, broadcom 802.11b/g nic, 80gb toshiba 5400rpm slow ..... hard drive, and a celery 440 running the show..

i'm attempting to fit a Dell 5530 WWAN card in my Dell XPS M1330. Could someone advise which cables to attach where?..
There are 3 available cables, a blue, grey/white and black/white but on the 5530 there are 2 connections: main and aux. The blue cable will not reach to the main connection..

Have got a Dell Studio 1735 for a year now and wanted to have mobile broadband internet.
So I bought a new Dell 5530 card. When I received it, installed it in my laptop following the online instructions and downloaded the latest driver for it.
When I went in the 'Device manager' read that the driver is working properly, so it is functioning.

Just received a new XPS Studio 13 purchased as a single customer (rather than through business channels)... having issues with the WWAN 5530 which I got on the presumption that it would be unlocked.
Dell ControlPoint Connection Manager says it is "unactivated HSPA". Have tried activating it via vodafone, but their computers are down today!
- Am I able to activate it without the help of Vodafone?
- Is it locked to the Vodafone network? .....

I'm owner of E6400, and i'm consider now to buy Dell Wirless 5530 on ebay for 60$ include shipping (pretty cheap).
I unserstand that I can install it only if my E6400 came with preparation for it (antenna for it).
How could I check if my notebook have the extra antenna?
And if there isn't antenna installed, Can I install it? (in ebay it cost 10$)
I saw that there is place to put sim card, and there is antenna connectors for the wwan cards

I have a dv5t with an extra mini-pci-express slot open. if anyone's tried this 64gb SSD and used it to run Windows XP or Vista?
[url]
It's 149, but I think it's worth the price. I'll have the 64gb for the OS and applications, while the installed hard drive (500gb) will be used for all my personal data.

I'm currently looking at SSDs and found those neat mini PCIe SSDs.
Seeing that my HP 2710p has got a second mini PCIe slot, I'm wondering whether I'd be able to plug in such a SSD.

I finally convinced my employer to spring for a new Precision M4500. In order to do so,
I had to pare the price down to around $2k, which I did by opting out of the 64GB SSD MiniCard. I figured I could always install it later.
It's later.

I have a spare PCI-e slot in my dv2700 (originally for evdo card) and I was wondering if its possible to get a mini-pcie ssd (like from a dell mini) and boot from that.
I am aware there won't be much speed increase, perhaps even a decrease but might be nice to be able to just use the hdd as secondary.

Just found this and was wondering if it can be used in a regular minipcie slot. With every connector of course.
Or something like letting the X-FI chip doing all the work , processing etc. and lead the output through existing onboard audio.

There is a REAL X-Fi chip on board not those lower end ones used in usb and pcmcia solutions.

my question is about the empty mini-pcie slot inside the 5102wlmi. I plugged in a sprint novatel e725 wwan card, but windows doesn't detect anything. Is there a modded bios that detects it?

I have downloaded and installed the correct drivers and also the wireless manager from Sony Ericsson. The problem I am having is with Vodafone. Both my Vodafone SIM cards work perfectly well with my unlocked Vodafone branded USB dongle.
However, these sim cards do not work with the Dell card. When I try my Orange Sim card from my mobile phone it works perfectly. So I know the Dell card works and therefore suspect that I only need to change the settings.
However, I don't have a clue what settings to change-that's where I hope you guys can help! Thanks in advance.
PS. I have a latitude E6500

I need to download drivers for the dell Wireless 5530 Mobile Broadband Built-in Mini-Card.
I have searched various dell sites with no joy! I can find drivers for the 5520 no problem but they won't work. I've had no joy with the vista driver update feature either.
I can't even find them with google!

Maybe it's late and i'm missing it somewhere but would anybody be able to point me in the right direction.

but for now I was wondering if I put this in my M1730, would I be able to access the GPS functions of it for a program such as Streets
