What is wireless WAN adaptor?

I use my HP laptop exclusively on a wireless connection. Every morning when I start it up, I get a message from HP Assistant that my wireless LAN is working properly, but my wireless WAN is turned off. Since my laptop is working just fine with the settings as they are, I have left them alone. Can you tell me what these settings are for (both LAN and WAN) and whether I should turn WAN on? How will th any changes affect my wireless connection? Thaks in advance.

    A wireless wide area network (WWAN), is a form of wireless network. The larger size of a wide area network compared to a local area network requires differences in technology. Wireless networks of all sizes deliver data in the form of telephone calls, web pages, and streaming video.
