    I have a fleet full of CF-31s, and I want to pull them off of the external Verizon 4G cards and go internal with GOBI modems. I pulled a GOBI 4000 from another CF-31 (different fleet), but the BIOS/Windows doesn't recognize it. I am given to believe that I need an unlocker for the GOBI card, perhaps SPGOBI2.zip. Where might I find that file? These are CF31 Mk1s, model number CF-31AAAAX1M.

    Welcome to the Panasonic Toughbook forum

    This is something I don't use but we have many that do use GOBI. One thing we will need to know is what is the model number of the card you are trying to install.
