To connect to the mobile network, use one of the following methods. $ mmcli -sim= SIM_INDEX -pin= PIN -disable-pin Just as with the modem index, look for primary sim path: /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/SIM/ SIM_INDEX. Look for /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/Modem/ MODEM_INDEX. If the SIM card asks the PIN wvdial will not work.įailing that, you can use mmcli (provided by modemmanager) or AT commands, to unlock the SIM card.įirst, list the modems and find the modem's index: You can do that with journalctl or by shell commands such as:įirst of all use your SIM card in a normal phone and disable the PIN request if present. In general, at this point you should note if mode switching left you with additional /dev/ttyUSB* serial device and a ww* network interface. Some Huawei HiLink devices, for example, sometime operate at 192.168.8.0/24, with a gateway at 192.168.8.1.
Or from the drivers, and other information, stored in the initial USB flash memory storage (ZeroCD). Such information might be obtained from its behavior in another OS. Otherwise, you will have to have some knowledge about the network the device expects. If the device has a DHCP server, you can use a DHCP client to match it.
In that case you will need to have the interface up. (Discuss in Talk:Mobile broadband modem)ĭepending on the device, it may expose an Ethernet network interface or provide Wi-Fi. Reason: Add instructions for switching these devices to "modem mode". Some devices are supported in the USB serial kernel module called option (named after the "Option" devices, but not limited to just those) and may be used without usb_modeswitch. When a device is switched, its product ID may change to a different value. It ships with udev rules /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/40-usb_les that contain entries for many devices, which it will switch to modem mode upon insertion. Additionally some have a slot into which the user can insert an additional flash memory card.Ī useful utility for switching these devices into modem mode is usb_modeswitch. The first mode, sometimes known as ZeroCD, is often used to deliver an internet communications program for another operating system and is generally of no interest to Linux users.
Often these devices will have two modes (1) USB flash memory storage (2) USB modem. Note: Mini PCIe adapters also show up in lsusb instead of lspci. Note that some devices will show two different product IDs at different times as explained below. Which will show the vendor and product IDs of the device.
