The datasheet mentions that it also has a USB interface and the net6501 manual mentions PCI-E slot J5 is USB only so I've tried swapping the modem about with the SSD I normally have in that slot. When I boot into the OS I don't see any USB devices (unidentified or otherwise) appear on any of the controllers. The only thing I can think of is that as there is no SIM attached, that might be stopping the modem from registering? I was thinking I could use something like this: https://techship.se/products/sim-card-adapter-for-mini-pci-express-modules/ ...but I don't want to splash out if it's not going to help. Does anyone have any experience of these sorts of devices?I tried almost the exact same with a Ericsson HSUPA mini-pci-e, problem is there is no slot for the sim ;)Hence the piece of hardware I linked to, which just wraps around the smaller of the two sets of contacts on the PCI-E edge connector.
Woops, missed that.
Nope, I thought it was because there may be some pinout to the sim missing ... was not too sure.Even without the SIM, did the Ericsson modem show up on the system?
My laptop picks it up as a USB host controller and then picks up usb serial devices ttyUSB0 through to ttyUSB2
