    I know it's prohibited to discuss bios password, but I don't know whether it covers optional kit configuration too :))
    So I can write this password here if moderator doesn't kill me after that :))

    I think it's too complicated to install "foreign" gobi cards. Maybe it's easy with new platforms, but I wouldn't spend my time :)

    hello guys, please help, I have a new CF-C2ACAZX1M and just installed sierra wireless MC7750. I tested the card on CF-C1 and works but I cant seem to have any success on the CF-C2. It just does not seem to see the card in Device Manager. The current WAN ID in bios is ff, what I am doing wrong?

    Thank you so much!!! It worked for ID 4 (no 04 available) but unfortunately Verizon won't register the card, they said that Sierra build in cards are no longer supported by vzn network!!! That really sucks since I wasted about 2 days on research.

    It will save you a lot of trouble by purchasing a card from a Toughbook. Other brands cards such as Fujitsu are difficult if not impossible to get working in a Toughbook. Two posts above yours gives you a wwan ID to try.
    I will not re type it.
