Welcome to the HP Community --

 

Enable Sim card is a multi-step process:

 

Confirm that your computer has the necessary WWAN Broadband module installed in the hardware.

Reminder >>

The WWAN module is a purchase option on this series -- NOT every computer includes this hardware module.

 

  • Check that the WWAN hardware is installed
  • Check / Install any needed driver for that module
  • Install a supported SIM card that can connect to your active Mobile Carrier Network

 

Reference - Hardware

Maintenance and Service Guide

Page 45

 

If the module is installed in the hardware,

Use the Device Manager to find / display information about an installed WWAN module.

 

Example – Control Panel access to Device Manager

 

Control Panel > icon view > Device Manager

Tab View 

Select View by action types

Check Show hidden devices

Select Drivers by type

Expand section Network Adapters

Find LT / LTE in list

 

    NOTE >> names vary and might be different from the example...

 

Right-Click on the module > Properties

 

 

 

=============================================

 

Use Settings > Network & internet to display information about an installed SIM card.

 

The SIM card, when connected to an active mobile account, works with the WWAN hardware module to connect your computer to your mobile network carrier.

 

If you need a driver for the installed WWAN module,

Open category Software and Drivers > Software and drivers for HP EliteBook 840 G5 Notebook PC 

Select Operating System = Windows

Select Operating System version = Windows 10

Open All Drivers

Open All

Open details for the WWAN driver

Example - Webpage for Driver

Download / Save / Install the driver
