This got into my spam folder for some reason.
GMail is weird sometimes.
I still have to try this out a bit more.
I'm load-balancing various stuff, so I did not get to try out stuff in depth.
Atm I'm doing:
config interface 'usb0_1'
option ifname 'usb0'
option proto 'wwan'
option ip4table 100
option ip6table 100
This seems to make an interface [in netifd] called
network.interface.usb0_1 which adds the ip4table/ip6table to usb0.
However, for some reason [likely a bug with my config generation code]
the DHCP part is not initializing properly ; well for some reason no
RX packets are incoming.
I'll dig into that.
My trip through getting LTE setup on our system was a bit interesting.
At some point, I've found that the modem needs a backport from the
upstream kernel.
For the 4.4 kernel, this is needed for some QMI modems:
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/93725149794d3d418cf1eddcae60c7b536c5faa1
Otherwise, the modem does not init. That patch should be in 4.5 though.
