+1 from me. I'm assuming that the default setting when the modem is detected will always be 802.3, and only then changed to raw-ip by userspace when needed. I really hope we can switch to raw-ip automatically for all modems supporting WDA, as that would be a quick thing to do in e.g. qmi-network and ModemManager, but who knows what other vendors than Sierra are doing. -- Aleksander https://aleksander.es _______________________________________________ networkmanager-list mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
