Hello from Italy,
on the new 3 models of the new Elegance Line E733 (13.3") - E743 (14.1") - E753 (15.6") there are some italy localized-promo configurations signed "UMTS/LTE READY".
But there is not any UMTS or LTE Module provided as ADD-ON in Architect-Configurator if you wanna buy it in a second time.
It's only possible buy the entire Notebook with UMTS or LTE Module ALREADY INSTALLED by factory!
When the UMTS Module is already mounted on these Notebook it is the same Sierra Wireless MC8305 mounted in the older notebooks, but it is a newer HW Revision, and if you mount on these new notebooks the older coded P/N S26391-F985-L120 UMTS Module: it does not work correctly (it runs and it is recognized, it recognizes the SIM CARD but it does not connect)
Have you already noticed this problem?
Is there a FW UPDATE to upgrade the older UMTS module to set it good for the new Lifebook E7x3?
Regards,
Andrea Casarini
