Greetings!

X1 Extreme Gen4 does have WWAN (mobile broadband, what you would call a "modem") option.

But usually it's extremely difficult (if not impossible) to upgrade from "without modem" to "with modem".

~External notebook shell need to have SIM tray
~Need to install WWAN (mobile broadband, what you would call a "modem")
~Is the antennae pre-installed (usually above your LCD location)??

As you can see, this is WWAN (mobile broadband, what you would call a "modem") is not something to be installed after-market, unfortunately...
