Hello Everyone,
I just have a couple of questions regarding the operation of ModemManager and
LuCI integration.
1. I have an interface configuration in /etc/config/network which reads very
similarly to the one on the modemmanager-openwrt bitbucket readme file. Upon
startup of my system, the modem is always in the disabled state. I have to
manually enable it, and then issue the simple connect. I thought that, but
perhaps this is wrong, that modem manager would enable the interface and issue
a connection command using the APN supplied in the network configuration file.
Can someone please explain how I should go about automatically connecting? I
have tried setting autoconnect ‘1' in the configuration as well.
Is the only real way to get an automatic connection from boot/reboot to have a
script to read the /etc/config/network file for the interface using
‘modemmanager’ as the protocol?
2. I think this question is better suited to the lede/openwrt forum. I have
created a working LuCI Protocol for ModemManager which creates the interface as
described above. However, I believe the ability to start/stop this connection
from LuCI would be of great advantage to the user. Unless I am doing something
above incorrectly, how can I let ModemManager to detect changes to the
interface?
This is the config file on the bitbucket page:
Once installed, you can configure the 2G/3G/4G modem connections directly in
/etc/config/network as in the following example:
config interface 'broadband'
option device
'/sys/devices/platform/soc/20980000.usb/usb1/1-1/1-1.2/1-1.2.1'
option proto 'modemmanager'
option apn 'ac.vodafone.es'
option username 'vodafone'
option password 'vodafone'
option pincode '7423'
option lowpower ‘1'
Mine is like this
config interface ‘broadband’
option device ‘/dev/cdc-wdm0’
option proto ‘modemmanager’
option apn ‘live.vodafone.com’
Kind Regards,
Nicholas S.
