It's not the Wifi, there's not a whitelist on WLAN. The problem is that the WWAN cards are blocked unless you have the old, 3G card.
The old, but working (Fujitsu OEM approved) card's ID is: Sierra Wireless MC8355, USB\VID_1199&PID_9015&REV_0002&MI_05
The other hardware ID for it is: USB\VID_1199&PID_9015&MI_05.
The new card that needs to go into it is a Sierra Wireless MC7700, USB\VID_1199&PID_68A2.
There's no error that occurs on the Fujitsu laptops (unlike the HP or Lenovo BIOS warning). These laptops will just not show the WWAN Card option in the BIOS Config screen and not pass the HWID to Windows.
I had a T731 in the past and it's BIOS was modded to work with this MC7700 card - it was a Securecore Tiano also (but not UEFI). Once I installed the updated bios, it immediately showed the "WWAN Card" option in the BIOS configuration.
Would it be easier to just unlock the feature in the BIOS menu, or would the whitelist still prevent the card from loading?
