Upgrade from Sierra EM7355 to 7565

Obviously given the correct adapter. Is it possible to get the 7565 working on a 31 mk4 running windows 7? or do the drivers not exist?/would i have to upgrade to w10?

Is this what you are looking for?

Yes, but i don't have an account so I am unable to login and download the file.
This may be useless anyway because I just realized i have a bigger issue with being able to ever utilize an mini PCIe to m.2 adapter. I either need to find a different adapter or a better sierra wireless card that is typically m.2, but instead is mini PCIe...
The reason is because it's impossible to put the screws in because the holes are blocked by the card.

Maybe this card but then I would have to see if I could find w7 drivers that work...

 

AGAIN, for whatever reason i couldn't edit my post to attach a picture...

 

Realized i'm an idiot and the only reason this wont work is because I previously broke off the side extensions that WOULD HAVE attached to the screws...

Anybody have a mini PCIe to m.2 adapter? Let me know how much for shipping.
my email is

 

Ive opted to purchase the EM7455 and use these drivers.

When i placed my order I received a message from seller saying
Your order is double checked up to date (latest firmware) working great. Don’t roll back to previous firmware version, with each firmware revision Sierra makes it more difficult to repair. If you have problems the number one issue is signal.
—>ANTENNA: Be careful with main and aux connections. Use magnification to help you. You can damage if too much force is used.
If you are using with ROOter software, do not test in Windows machine.Windows will take over and close your communication port.

**WARNING**
AT!IMAGE=0 This will wipe off the latest firmware just like wiping a hard-drive.
**Do not downgrade or rollback firmware. This includes RESTORE or RESET to Factory.**
Your modem is optimized for best speed. The only commands you would every want to use would be to band lock.
Signal = Speed You can do a speed test at various times a day and get different results. Speed also varies depending on cell traffic and provider throttling.
Item is shipped to you like you see below. If you do a factory reset or a restore you will wipe mismatching info below close your AT ports and modem will require reprogramming.
(Stay away from guides that instruct to factory RESET or RESTORE)

Firmware is latest: Revision: SWI9X30C_02.33.03.00 r8209 CARMD-EV-FRMWR2 2019/08/28

If you have question after you receive, I will try and help.
See attached photos of your IMEI# antenna connectors. I check each one before I ship with microscope.
Thanks,

What does he mean by
If you do a factory reset or a restore you will wipe mismatching info below close your AT ports.?​

 

I think your best bet is once installed, "(Stay away from guides that instruct to factory RESET or RESTORE)"
Seller also states he will answer questions once product is received.

 

Ok, Hopefully when installing drivers there's no risk of a reset happening...
Or is there a possibility of that happening? I know nothing about AT commands or firmware updates for these types of cards.

 

Success with install of EM7455 on W7 w/ most recent drivers and connection manager.
Lol still no luck with the GPS stuff. Screw it...

 

Test GPS with another software.

I used visual GPS view. and GPS viewer. COM3 @ 9600 shows up but whats the point if i don't have an active map? (like i do with sierra?)


Basically what i'm saying is that it's pointless with no map.

 

Strangest thing happened. I accidentally reinstalled 7455 drivers which broke everything. (never work on your computer while talking on the phone.) I ended up having to uninstall, then restart ,then reinstall, then restart again. And the moment I went into control panel to enable, then disable, then re enable the NMEA port the 2nd time, I got satellites....
