My laptop has a sim card slot but the cellular options are not there.

How can I fix this?

Hi:

 

Every HP Elitebook 820 G3 has a SIM card slot.

 

What 90% of them don't have is the optional and expensive WWAN adapter that is needed to connect to the cellular service.

 

All the SIM card does is allow you to use your mobile carrier's network.

 

In order for the SIM card to work, your notebook must have one of these WWAN adapters listed in the device manager under the Network Adapters category.
