the number was printed on a sticker on the bottom of my computer but the ink has rubbed off of the sticker rendering the number unreadable. i have an HP Dv5 2132dx. i must have the number to activate my mobile broadband internet.

Hi:

 

It is possible the IMEI number is also on your WWAN Module inside the PC.

 

Below is the link to the service manual for your notebook.

See Chapter 4, page 56 for the instructions to access the device.

 

I am not familiar with broadband software that comes with PC's.

 

You may also find it in there somewhere if there is a device configuration or device info menu.
