W520 WWAN FRUs?

#1 Post by Carthik » Wed Feb 14, 2018 8:14 am

I notice there are quite a few and probably updates throughout the W520's lifespan.

Which card(s) are the most up to date (and fastest) for North America? I'm aware it varies based on the band.

I'm referring to whitelisted cards btw.

Since W520 can have the whitelist removed, don't stare yourself blind on quite often over-priced and under-performing "whitelisted" cards.
Huawei EM660 (maybe WL)
3G Gobi 3000/MC8355 (WL)
4G Gobi 4000/MC7550 (non-WL)
