    i'm a heavy 3G data user and I've made a mistake buying a 2530p without WWAN.

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

    I really hate those BIOS lock zzz

    the un2400 is overpriced compared to the hs2300 or other brand

    I can´t really say what cards work since I cant find the whitelist on hp´s homepage.
    But after browsing their support forums for over 1hour I can say that the HS2300 doesn´t work.(as stated by several users, since it´s locked out in bios)

    Its a shame as I´m in the market for a 2530p and was hoping to save money and transfer the card from my 2510p.

    In this post, user wrote a whitelist compatible PID/VID into MC5727 WWAN card. No detail as to how it was done.
