Lenovo ThinkPad L R/SL :: L440 Cannot Find Mobile Broadband
Sep 9, 2014
I have L440 with 64-bit Win7. Earlier experienced major WiFi connection problems, which were fixed with BIOS and WiFi card driver update.
Briefly after that Wireless Radios Master Control no longer lists Mobile Broadband, it only shows 802.11 Wireless/Wimax and Bluetooth.
Windows Network Connections lists "Mobile Broadband Connection" as "Not connected, N5321 gw Mobile Broadband Driver. Diagnosing this connection suggests to "Turn on mobile broadband capability", which I cannot do as it is not listed in the Wireless Radios Master Control.

I recieved the W540 a few days ago, and I see there is a slot behind the battery for a SIM card, I tried using my SIM card and I still can't use mobile broadband. Can I use mobile broadband on the W540? do I need any drivers? and if I can't use it, can I buy something like this for the expresscard slot and insert the SIM in the slot behind the battery?

I have a new X240. It has a sim card slot on the right side. I am running Windows 7 Enterprise 64 bit.
it seems that the x240 does not recognize wwan hardware. I can't find it in the device manager. It doesn't connect to any network when I insert a SIM card. Also, no unknown devices show up in the device manager. I installed the following drivers in an attempt to fix the issue:
-Ericsson N5321gw wireless WAN
-Sierra Wireless 7355 - Gobi 5000
... but no success.
I also tried running commands in cmd window to check the status of the wwan:
-netsh mbn sh int
-netsh mbn sh cap int=*
... but I always get the same message: "Mobile Broadband Service (wwansvc) is not running"
I am starting to think that having a sim card slot does not neccessarily mean that the x240 is Mobile Broadband capable.

I have a t420s and so far I'm happy with it.Recently I purchased a MC7700 card from ebay with lenovo FRU. Everything looks smooth except that I found there is no way to turn on the mobile broadband switch.i believe I have a whitelist-removed bios otherwise it won't boot. The driver downloaded from lenovo website is installed fine, I can see the card working in device manager. I could read the iccid in windows network settings. Everything looks good, but I just can't turn mobile broadband on.
My laptop runs windows 8.1, I heard there is a thinkvantage connectivity tool that might work for windows 7 but not windows 8. I have quite a few files on my laptop and going back to windows 7 is the last option I would like to try.

I have a Thinkpad L440 with 4GB of RAM.
1. Is it OK to add 8GB (so I will have 12GB in total) or it would be better to add 4GB in order to have two similar SODIMMs?
2. Are there any known incompatibilities for specific brands? I found two SODIMMs from Kingston (part numbers KVR16S11/8 and KVR16LS11/8) and one from Crucial (part number CT102464BF160B). All are clocked at 1600MHz.

There are a few configurations of L440 laptops with Nvidia GT 720M grafic cards and Optimus (e. g. 20ASS01G00). Is it possible to change the used graphic system in the BIOS (Intel only/NVidia only/Optimus)? And which card is hardwired to the external ports (VGA, mDP)?
(Do this differ from the T440p or the Edge Series, E540?)

I have the Lenovo L440 (20AT002YGE) with the integrated Intel Graphics.
I have turned off the automatic dimming of the screen brightnes in the windows energy settings and also turned off the energy saver settings in the Intel driver but the screen keeps beeing dimmed when the background is black or dark. This is very annoying when you work outdoor and the sun keeps shining on your display and than it dimms the brightness.

Customer has three L440 with Docking station PRO and Samsung 22" S22C45 on DVI
* W7 64BIT Sp1 Lenovo version not VL
* Latest BIOS
* Latest GFX Driver
* All Windows WSUS Updates (Standard Image from lenovo with all Hotfixes)
* Power Options set to Performance (lenovo Power manager deinstalled)
* Office 2010 SP2, PDF24, APPV client 4.6+
* Dameware 6.X Agent
problem:
Laptop is in docking station with external 22" Samsung DVI and working in Winword, IE or others. Suddenly screen from Samsung turns black (laptop TFT from people who use dual stays on). After 1-10 seconds the samsung screen comes back. We fiest thought this was some RDP issue with other users connecting to the device. (Not the case)
NO > BIOS and GFX is latest and MADE it worser with updating to the latest (happens more often).
NO > MHz change from 59/60 or slighty modify did not solve
NO > It's not a screensaver problem
NO > All three Samsung are from diffrent shippments and even Distributors
NO > All three L440 are from different time periods 2-3 Months split

I have a Lenovo L440 laptop with a think pad pro dock. The HDD is encrypted with TrueCrypt and needs a password before windows will boot. The laptop will not display out to the monitor attached to the dock before windows loads. I have changed the bios setting Config > Display > Boot Display Device, as well as all the other display options, but it does not make a difference. I have tried with a VGA cable and a DVI cable and neither works. I have tried with 2 different L440s and 2 docking stations with the same problem occuring on both. I have successfully used a Lenovo L540 laptop with the same model of docking station. I have also updated to the most current bios version.
I'm wondering if I'm missing something or if the L440 model simply does not support this function?

I bought Lenovo L440 few days ago.
I have problem with wifi connection. Wifi works perfect with other devices: phones, tablets, laptops. When I connect to wifi with L440, wifi works 5-30 min. and then crash. L440 kills wifi network. All devices can't connect to wifi until I restart router.
I have read about this problem, but in task manager I can't find "discovery.exe" or LenovoEMC Storage Connector in Contral Panel.

When I pause playback of an .mp3, there's permanent white noise coming from the internal speakers.
Stopping the playback stops the white noise after approximately 4 seconds. I never had this issue with any laptop / soundcard. Can this be fixed?
I have the latest BIOS and drivers installed. Headphones are fine (no white noise).
Maybe the inbuilt L440 soundcard has a problem. I had to return my first L440 because there was a loud plop when starting playback and the left speaker was way quieter than the right one.
In the German part of this forum people are reporting problems realted to the internal speaker (cracking sound, white noise).

i downgradeed my new HP Mini from win7 to xp pro.
but i had a problem now, it seems the system dont recongise when i insert my mobile sim card after i had installed Qualcomm Mobile Broadband Drivers & HP connection manager.
what make things worst, the connection manager actually unable to install complete due to an error msg: no WWAN card found! (Which i did insert)
I did check with the guides/ FAQ in HP site. but i cant find any modem in my device manager.
The only mistake i made is i forgot to check if this part is working in win7 enviroment before i do a downgrade.

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

Dell announced, a few weeks ago, a new replacement for the 57XX and 55XX Mobile Broadband MiniPCIe cards that they are installing as integrated WWAN in select notebooks.
The new Dell Wireless 5600 Mobile Broadband card is based on the Qualcomm Gobi chipset, and therefore supports all major NA carriers (CDMA and GSM/HSPA), and all global UMTS/HSPA bands.
As a result, you can theoretically use this one integrated device on AT&T, Verizon, Sprint, O2, Telus, Rogers, Fido, T-Mobile, or any other EVDO or HSPA service globally, just by activating with the provider (CDMA/EVDO) or using the providers SIM card (GSM/HSPA).

I was all set to order my CTO Z with Core i7 on sonystyle but it seems that it won't allow me to select the Core i7 unless I also add the $100 Verizon mobile broadband. This seems quite odd as I don't have any interest in the mobile broadband but do want the faster processor. Any way to get around this? I don't want any of the pre-configured models as there are other things I want to tweak.

I have order an Latitude E4300 from the Dell UK Outlet page. Specs seemed to be perfect: SSD, mobile broadband and so on.
Now, that I have received the machine, the mobile broadband add-on is missing. Description said that it has "WWAN" and, because I was still unsure, I actually asked a representative who told me in a chat (lucky I saved this session) that this machine would definitely have mobile broadband.
There is also one piece of plastic missing at the joint of the display, but it doesn't really affect usability of the notebook. Well, I could live with this .....

Its my first post and i've tried searching but cannot find the info i'm after. I got my Studio XPS13 today and installed Windows 7 64 Bit on it. I have installed all the drivers ok but i cannot get the connection software anywhere to use the WWAN.
Maybe it's late and i'm missing it somewhere but would anybody be able to point me in the right direction.

I am trying to share my 3g connection to my other devices. My internet is working on my laptop. I've enabled mobile hotspot in access connectoins, I've connected a 2nd device and the device is properly showing up as a connected device. But when I try to load a webpage on my 2nd device, it times out. I tried also with other devices (ipad, android phone), but to no avail.

I have a T420 Thinkpad and have 2 external monitors connected; one using VGA into the docking station and one using DVI into the docking station. The laptop does not recognize the mobile PC display as an option when I attempt to extend to a 3rd monitor. The ultimate goal is 3 monitors extended: 2 external and 1 (the laptop display). Is this possible?

My W530 suddenly stopped communicating with my MS Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000, and nothing I try will bring it back. It does not show under Bluetooth devices, and it will not find anything when I search for devices. I know the mouse is not at issue, as it will readily pair with an Android device. Yes, the manual wireless switch is turned on. Yes, it is turned on in the Fn+F5 OSD. I've done a BIOS update. I've updated my system using Lenovo System Update. I've checked power settings both under driver properties, and in my power plans. Everything seems to be in place, it's just like the Bluetooth has vanished, but the system doesn't know it. Yes, I'm POSITIVE my system has Bluetooth... I've been using it for the past 6 months or more.
Recently, I've experienced issues with the mouse losing connection for a few moments at a time, but nothing beyond that. Then yesterday, It's completely gone, and I can't get it back.

I added a mSata second drive. Works fine. Lenovo X220, Bios 1.16. PC boots from the new drive. I don't want an operating system on the new drive, just want it for storage. So I entered the bios by pushing the blue thinkvantage button and can't find a way to permanently change boot order. I hit F12 to TEMPORARILY change boot order, every time I boot the PC. Major PAIN! I tried to enter the Intel Boot Extension Management Engine, but it needs a password and I don't have a password.

I have a Carbon Touch 3444-CUU that can't see it's fingerprint reader. It used to work when brand new, but after lots of lenovo and windows updates, it now does not:
I am on Windows 8.1, with all updates. No problems in device manager.
Touchchip Fingerprint Coprocessor (WBF advanced mode) installed under Biometric devices fine.
Power management set to _not_ turn off device to save power.
The bios is 2.61.
I suspect the problem is very low-level, because even the BIOS cannot find device when trying to set it up.
If I have the latest BIOS, but it can't see the device - what can I do?

I really like the new EliteBook 8450w and 8470w and I think it is time to replace my Thinkpad W500. Can anyone clue me in on how my experience might be different? I know plenty of people with consumer HP laptops but I don't expect it should be anything like that.
How is the noise (my Thinkpad is very quiet)?
How is the "feel"? The plastic body on my Thinkpad makes it feel cheep for what it is.
How are the hinges?
How is the keyboard? I absolutely love that they fit a num pad in the 15"
How is the trackpoint?
