    I'm looking at installing a cellular card in my 8740w, which did not come with one from the factory. Instead of going with the standard HSPA part # from HP, I'd like to get an upgraded card to support the latest AT&T wireless capabilities. We have HSPA+ and now LTE in my area.

    Has anyone tried this? If so, what card did you have to use? Did BIOS whitelisting rear it's ugly head?
