    hi,

    I´ve recently bought a alienware m11x laptop.
    everything works great, except the wwan card i bought and installed myself.
    i do know there is a forum somewhere ( Adding Dell 5520 Internal WWAN Card To Alienware M11x | The Singaporean Gamer from somebody who got the 5520 working on a m11x.

    the problem is; his card shows up as 4 unknow devices, while mine shows only 2.
    furthermore, my card gets detected by vodafone software (altrough it does not say its a dell5520). but the vodafone software cannot connet to wwan.
    when lucky, the sim card is actually detected, but without any connection possibilitys

    oh and the dell connection manager does´t find mny card at all



    btw: can someone tell me if a mini pci SSD will work in the wwan slot of the m11x (only for booting windows)
