I have an old ThinkPad X230 with a WWAN modem. Installed OpenBSD to it and it just works as a nice small travel laptop. The model is from year 2013.

  How do you use the WWAN? How could I install, say Whatsapp or Signal, on my laptop?

    You'd have to activate it with a cell provider that supports WWAN and then you can just use the desktop (or web) versions of WhatsApp or Signal.

      The WhatsApp desktop app (or web version) actually communicates with your smart phone to do the actual sending/receiving/communications. If you turn off your cell phone and attempt to use WhatsApp web it will fail.

    Signal has a desktop app; you might need to put the sim into an android/iOS device for initial setup.
