Mobile internet via cellular network mostly not working

The battery drainage is extreme indeed. According to a little test I did, the Pinephone can remain in standby for only five to six hours with ATTR set to "on" and more than 34 hours with "auto" (see below).

Of course you won't notice the difference as much if you actually use the phone because that will drain the battery in no time with both settings.

Unfortunately, I will have to stick to the "on" setting since otherwise the modem will crash so often that the phone is actually unusable.

Or does anybody have a fix for BOTH problems so that I would not have to choose between short battery life and a permanently defunct modem?

Nice work! Thanks for the effort.
