T61 and prior T series ThinkPad Laptops

[#1]

Hi

I had purchased T61 from us and in order shipment receipt written as nvidia quadro nvs 140m w/wwan w/AMT .

The intention behind to post question is now I am planning to add WWAN module, for that before going to order like to know ...is in my T61 can add WWAN module. And also like to know WWAN antenna is by default will install or not.

Looking forward expert’s inputs.

Cheers

mallikarjuna, welcome to the forum,

it would be helpful if you could post which T61 you have, even better post the Type and Model Number this will help members to help you.

That asked, it looks as though you already have as wwan is written on your receipt. What happens if you use the Fn+F5 key combination? Does it appear?

Thanks

Unless you have a large rectangular bulge on the RH side of your ThinkPad's lid, the machine is not WWAN ready, no antenna is present.

Hi George,

First thanks for prompt response,

It could be great help if you provide a Picture of the same, so that we can easily recognize the same.

Looking forward your  help

Cheers

I don't have a picture handy, but if both sides of your lid look the same, there's no WWAN antenna.

The rectangle I'm referring to is raised about 7-8mm above the rest of the surface, and is at least 5cm long.

You should be able to clearly see it if it's there.

I've found a picture here of a system with the UMTS antenna, look at the right side of the lid.
