S10-3 witch SIM-Slot, is WWAN (modem) included ?

[Sigma11]

Hello,

I bought a S10-3 here in Germany. They offered the included 3g umts feature... A sim slot, where I can

put my sim card in, is existent. But, however, I can not find a modem installed in the win7 hardware...

All the drivers for the different modems were installed without any success...

So I am in doubt... Maybe there is no modem installed?? But the sim card fits in the slot. There has to be

something... (dummy slot??)

I need help...

Hi and welcome,

3G  card comes as optional accessory ...there is no model, at this time with 3G WWAN UMTS card pre-installed available in germany...

Take a look inside your S10-3 thats easy.

Remove the psu and battery... Turn around your S10-3 , open the bottom lid, ..see an emtpy place where the 3G card will fit...Factory pre-assembled is antenna , minipci-e card slot and SIM-Card...no 3G card itself..

You have to buy a 3G card :: (For Germany UMTS ) Lenovo Qualcomm Gobi 2000 or Lenovo Sony Ericsson F3507G will work

hi ,

i have the similar doubt. I just got a Lenovo S10-3 as a gift. I m not sure if it is 3G ready though there is a 3G SIM card slot. But when i slot my SIM card in, nothing is detected when i boot up in Windows 7.

There is no driver or appl that detect this 3G modem.

Any one can enlighten me?

KK, Hey,
Where what model 3G card should i purchase for my s10-3. I am in Jamaica. Also when i open the back of my network there were two slot one has a wireless and one for 3G modem. What is the difference

Hi and welcome,

Lenovo Qualcomm Gobi 2000 or Lenovo Sony Ericsson F3507G both cards should be working.,

your S10-3 should look like that (pic) the bigger minicpi-e card slot (full size) should be there , when you open the bottom lid... if there are no antennas , use USB solution or mifi router instead if you need wide wireless broadband

the smaller card is the wireless card (halfsize minipci-e)

Hi and welcome,

your book is prepared with antennas, red/blue on the picture  ... thats good news...

if you want to use 3G, you have to buy a 3G Card (one of above)  , buy & insert a  data sim-card...

plug in both ... install driver ... and go...
