The mobile data to get online has also worked for some time now. I only have the slight inconvenience in that the modem seems to turn off ( which would = to "mobile data not working")and I would have to reboot to get it back on. I usually do
mmcli -m 0 | grep SIM at which time if i get error: couldn't find modem I just do sudo reboot and it reboots and i reissue the mmcli -m 0 | grep SIM then i would get:
SIM | dbus path: /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/SIM/0
at which point I could use the mobile data. So, I wonder 1) if those who says it doesn't work could have rebooted and gotten it to work.
2) is there a command i can issue to get the modem to work without rebooting? or if there's a setting i need to edit to make the modem stay present more often?
Thank you!
The modem is still there but it will have changed it's id. you can run `mmctl -L` to get the device string and then `mmctl -m<id>` to query it. I've found a similar thing with gps https://gitlab.com/mobian1/issues/-/issues/69
