Hi
First:- Turn off the computer, press and hold the PWR button for 4 seconds.

Then - Leave only keyboard and mouse connected, disconnect all externally connected
devices such as Docking Station, USB storage devices, displays, and printers.
Unplug the AC adapter from the computer.

Next - Press and Hold the Power button for 15 seconds to Hard Reset.
Rinse and Repeat

AND/OR - Power on your PC, press Esc (repeatedly), then F2 at the prompt.
Choose System Tests (Fast Test does a 4 minute hardware check).

HOW DO I USE DIAGNOSTICS?

So there is a WWan and a WLan.  Which is the problem one?

I listed the Adapters from the Manual.

So are you trying to fit a WLan into a WWan?

When you find the correct type and then download and install drivers it may work.

I can't install the Driver, cuz BIOS block the WLAN Card to start...

[Lil_Boy_Blue]

Hi

OK.  Then I cannot help anymore.

[Instatic]

thanks anyway, but where can i get this information 😄 ? 

[Lil_Boy_Blue]

What information?

That is a WWan not a WLAN message.

As to the information about what Operating System you are using, surely you are the one to know.
