RPi-2 Arch multiple modems

2015-12-12 Thread John Whitmore
Hello all, I had a Raspberry Pi running Arch with two USB LTE Modems on two differet Network operators. This was all working perfectly but suddenly crashed mid week. Instead of repairing that old system, I still have it and can go back to it, but I decided that I'd grab a new SD card and install

Been on a few times between this list and the ModemManager. I was hoping to setup a system where I could build some intelligence behind two USB 4G Dongles and jump between connections depending on signal strength. My second Dongle has stopped that, as it don't report as a Modem device and instead
