PPP modem firmware updater
04-27-2022, 10:57 AM
There are other threads on modem firmware. However, this post is specifically targeting the use of the gnome-firmware application to update the modem firmware.
I recently installed the gnome-firmware package on mobian. As far as I know gnome-firmware is not installed by default on mobian. I wonder if it has been tested under mobian. When I opened it three devices were listed for possible updating, only the Qualcomm modem actually had an update available. The available release is designated 0.6.1, offered by Biktorgj. It is also designated as a Downgrade (maybe due to a different versioning system than Qualcomm).
I'd like to know if anyone has used gnome-firmware to install this update and if they found the process to be without issues. Did the update improve the functionality of the modem? What improvements were noticeable.
Has anyone been able to restore the original modem firmware using gnome-firmware?
