About this tag
The wwlan tag on WindowsForum.com covers discussions about wireless WAN (WWAN) and wireless LAN (WWLAN) autoconfiguration services in Windows. In one thread, a user reports that after upgrading to Windows 8.1, a D-Link mobile broadband dongle is incorrectly recognized as a read-only storage drive instead of a modem.

This tag is relevant for troubleshooting mobile broadband connectivity and service configuration in Windows.
