This is wrong; you shouldn't create a connection bound to ifname wwan0. The "interface-name" connection property expected by NetworkManager would be the control port of the modem as specified by ModemManager. The data port, which is what you specified, is transient, and is actually a decision of ModemManager which port to use (your MC7354 may actually be configured with a pair of QMI+WWAN interfaces instead of just one, and MM would tell you which one to use). I believe you can actually just ignore the "interface-name" and leave it blank, creating a "gsm connection setting that may be used with any modem"; e.g.: $ nmcli connection add type "gsm" con-name "cellular" apn "mnet.bell.ca.ioe" ifname "" -- Aleksander https://aleksander.es _______________________________________________ networkmanager-list mailing list networkmanager-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
