Greetings,
I have a T420, I modified the Bios, with this "T420_bios_1.52_NWL_ADV_0xE2_AES-NI_RAM_VBIOS_SIGN" thus removing the white list. In fact I have installed an unsupported wifi card and it works great !.
Now the only thing that makes me prope towards the T440p is the fact that I can't get any 4G LTE card to work !, I don't want to use the phone or external cards. I've tried 3 but none of them work. Beeps and the system does not boot.
Yet there is no white list in the bios installed! Why?
I also leave you the link of the post where I found the BIOS.

It's a mystery, I haven't found anyone that runs 4G LTE in the T420
I'm sorry for my english

I was just asking someone about this recently. What I gathered from that conversation is that the 4G card you use has to be using the USB signal lines on PCIe slot. I haven't had the opportunity to start digging into which cards fit into this category. Hope that helps some!

No idea about all this, but maybe you need an adapter such as this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/204139494103
There are many adapters, so check carefully!
