Using HP Mobile Broadband (select models only)

NOTE: For optimized WWAN performance, it is highly recommended that the case that came with this device is used when the WWAN is turned on.

HP Mobile Broadband enables your Slate to use wireless wide area networks (WWANs) to access the Internet from more places and over larger areas than it can by using WLANs. Using HP Mobile Broadband requires a network service provider, which in most cases is a mobile phone network provider.

When used with mobile network provider service, HP Mobile Broadband gives you the freedom to stay connected to the Internet, send email, or connect to your corporate network whether you are on the road or outside the range of Wi-Fi hotspots.

NOTE: You may need the HP Mobile Broadband Module serial number to activate mobile broadband service. Refer to Left edge on page 17 for the location of the serial number label.

Some mobile network service providers require the use of a subscriber identity module (SIM). A SIM contains basic information about you or your Slate, such as a personal identification number (PIN), as well as network information. Some Slates include a preinstalled SIM. If the SIM is not preinstalled, it may be included with the HP Mobile Broadband information provided with your Slate, or it may be provided separately by the mobile network service provider.

For information on inserting and removing the SIM, refer to Inserting a SIM on page 27 and Removing a SIM on page 27.

For additional information on HP Mobile Broadband and how to activate service with a preferred mobile network service provider, refer to the HP Mobile Broadband information if it is included with your Slate. For additional information, see the HP Web site at http://www.hp.com/go/ mobilebroadband (U.S. only).
