Some mobile network operators require the use of a subscriber identity module (SIM) card. A SIM card
contains basic information about you, such as a personal identication number (PIN), as well as network
information. Some computers include a SIM card that is preinstalled. If the SIM card is not preinstalled, it
might be included with the HP Mobile Broadband documents provided with your computer, or the mobile
network operator might provide it separately from the computer.
For information about HP Mobile Broadband and how to activate service with a preferred mobile network
operator, see the HP Mobile Broadband information included with your computer.
Using eSIM (select products only)
Your computer might be equipped with an eSIM. An eSIM is a programmable version of the commonly used
SIM that you can use to download dierent proles from selected carriers.
An eSIM lets you connect to the internet over a cellular data connection. With an eSIM, you do not need to get
a SIM card from your mobile operator, and you can quickly switch between mobile operators and data plans.
For example, you might have one cellular data plan for work and a dierent plan with another mobile operator
for personal use. If you travel, you can connect in more places by nding mobile operators with plans in that
area.
You can implement eSIMs in two ways:
● The eSIM chip can be embedded (eUICC). The notebook then operates as a dual SIM, one as eUICC and the
second as standard micro or nano SIM card on a SIM card tray. Only one SIM can be active at a time.
● A removable physical eSIM is placed on a SIM card tray like a standard micro or nano SIM card, but the
eSIM is not limited to a single carrier (physical blank eSIM).
You must add an eSIM prole to connect to the internet using cellular data. To add a prole, manage SIM
proles, and learn how to use an eSIM, go to https://www.support.microsoft.com , and type Use an eSIM
in the search bar.
Using GPS (select products only)
Your computer might be equipped with a Global Positioning System (GPS) device. GPS satellites deliver
location, speed, and direction information to GPS-equipped systems.
To enable GPS, be sure location is enabled under the Location setting.
▲ Type location in the taskbar search box, select Location privacy settings, and then select a setting.
Using Bluetooth wireless devices (select products only)
A Bluetooth device provides short-range wireless communications that replace the physical cable connections
that traditionally link electronic devices.
● Computers (desktop, notebook)
● Phones (cellular, cordless, smartphone)
● Imaging devices (printer, camera)
● Audio devices (headset, speakers)
