I'm using a Quectel EM05-CE, and trying to connect via simple connect using:
doas mmcli -m 0 --simple-connect="pin=1234,profile-id=1" This fails with a rather opaque error message: error: couldn't connect the modem: 'GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.libmbim.Error.Status.Failure: Failure' The service itself logs: <msg> [modem0] simple connect started... <msg> [modem0] simple connect state (6/10): register <msg> [modem0] simple connect state (7/10): wait to get packet service state attached <msg> [modem0] simple connect state (8/10): bearer <msg> [modem0] simple connect state (9/10): connect <msg> [modem0] state changed (registered -> connecting) <wrn> [modem0/bearer0] connection attempt #2 failed: Failure <msg> [modem0] state changed (connecting -> registered) <msg> [modem0/bearer0] connection #2 finished: duration 0s <wrn> [modem0] couldn't connect bearer: Failure I'm using modemmanager-1.22.0-r2 on Alpine Linux on x86_64. Any idea how to further debug the issue?
