Re: [Thinkpad] Problem Managing Wireless Radio

Hello,

No idea if it will help (I don't use the WWAN module in my T61p), but I
did find a download for the Verizon WWAN module at:

http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-67954

Interestingly enough, the description says it is for Windows 2000 through
Windows 7, including x64.

Perhaps installing it will make a difference.

Regards,

Aryeh Goretsky
