Asynchronously connecting to the modem: connection setup cancelled.
Modem Manager version: 1.7.0


Greetings,

I am hoping to get some advice on where to look to get more information to 
identify the problem that I am experiencing.  The modem I am using is a Sierra 
Wireless MC7430.  It is registered to the operator, has a good signal (-68dBm) 
but will not connect to the operator.  I have verified the SIM card in a mobile 
phone, SIM is activated and working.  What confuses me the most is that the 
modem was previously working on another APN with another SIM.

I have blanked out the defined context entries by entering at+cgdcont=x, where 
x is the index.  When it was previously working I had defined a context in the 
modem firmware, but this is actually what ModemManager will do for me, correct? 
 Nonetheless, I have already tried defining the new context using “IP" and the 
APN in the firmware to no avail.  (The command was 
at+cgdcont=2,”IP”,”yesoptus”).  I have tried every permutation of settings for 
the APN’s IP family settings in the firmware, such as IPV4V6, and IPV6, just in 
case this particular APN is picky.

Following the blanking out of the entries, I simply reinstalled the firmware on 
the modem using the supplied Sierra utility (sorry, I haven’t had a chance to 
try the new feature built into mmcli :) ).  Following that, I rebuilt LEDE from 
source using the latest snapshot available as of Jan 13th 2018, and updated the 
feeds, and used the ModemManager-openwrt supplied on Aleksander’s bitbucket 
profile.  

What is strangest to me, yet gives me determination to find the cause of the 
problem, is that it was working before on another APN with another SIM.     I 
had been using it on various snapshots of LEDE Reboot since November 2017.  The 
moment I changed the SIM, and changed the APN in /etc/conf/network’s modem 
manager entry is when the problem seems to have started.  (At that time, there 
was an APN defined in the modem firmware, but as I mentioned, the firmware has 
been reinstalled).  However, I had also performed a couple of sysupgrades with 
LEDE during that time, though I’m not so sure how that could have caused this.

I will close with some of the technical information.  Am I doing something 
wrong?  Would the qmi_wwan drivers have changed in this version of LEDE and 
affected modemmanager?  Should I be blacklisting any drivers when using 
qmi_wwan?  Gobi drivers are not installed.
