QMI Interface with Sixfab Shields/HATs

To get rid of the legacy cruft, newer ways to present USB-connected LTE modems like QMI and MBIM have been developed. Quectel modules offer QMI(Qualcomm MSM Interface) which is established as a real network interface, such as ethernet(typically shows as wwan0). There is an open source Linux in-kernel driver supporting this interface called qmi_wwan

The QMI is also counted among the non-AT protocols which are communicated over /dev/cdc-wdm0 port. In order to establish a connection, proper qmi/gobinet proxy should be installed, which again depending on the chipset of the module/modem and the kernel of Linux, can get a bit complicated.

This tutorial is maintained in our documentation section.

Hardware Setup

It is important to properly setup your hardware before you get started.


Warning: In this tutorial, the QMI interface was established using the connect manager program(quectel-CM tool) provided by Quectel. This tutorial will not work for modules from other OEM, it is only for Quectel.

Software Setup

1. Open a new terminal and run the update and upgrade command.

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y

Next, install the Raspberry Pi kernel headers needed for the QMI Interface.

sudo apt-get install raspberrypi-kernel-headers

Download the QMI installer file, and change the permission of the installation file. Then install it.

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sixfab/Sixfab_RPi_3G-4G-LTE_Base_Shield/master/tutorials/QMI_tutorial/qmi_install.sh
sudo chmod +x qmi_install.sh
sudo ./qmi_install.sh
Note: Make sure the module is disconnected before running the installer script.

Press ENTER key to reboot

4. At the end of installation enter any key to reboot your Raspberry Pi. Attach the USB cable of the HAT.

5. Navigate to the Quectel files that were installed in the previous step.

cd files/quectel-CM

6. Now run the following command to connect to the Internet.

sudo ./quectel-CM -s <APN_NAME>
Note: ./quectel-CM is a non-ending command as long as the connection is up.

Auto Connect on reboot

If you want your Raspberry Pi to automatically connect to the Internet via QMI interface then there is one more step you will need to follow.

1. Download the QMI auto connect installer file, and change the permission of the installation file. Then install it.

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sixfab/Sixfab_RPi_3G-4G-LTE_Base_Shield/master/tutorials/QMI_tutorial/install_auto_connect.sh
sudo chmod +x install_auto_connect.sh
sudo ./install_auto_connect.sh

2. It will then ask for APN. Type in your APN and then press ENTER.

[email protected]:~ $ sudo ./install_auto_connect.sh What is the APN? <YOUR_APN> –2020-12-03 12:07:39– https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sixfab/Sixfab_RPi_3G-4G-LTE_Base_Shield/master/tutorials/QMI_tutorial/reconnect_service Resolving raw.githubusercontent.com … Saving to: ‘qmi_reconnect.service’qmi_reconnect.service 100%[=========================================================>] 264 –.-KB/s in 0s2020-12-03 12:07:39 (2.63 MB/s) – ‘qmi_reconnect.service’ saved [264/264] … Saving to: ‘qmi_reconnect.sh’qmi_reconnect.sh 100%[=========================================================>] 224 –.-KB/s in 0s2020-12-03 12:07:40 (1.32 MB/s) – ‘qmi_reconnect.sh’ saved [224/224]Created symlink /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/qmi_reconnect.service → /etc/systemd/system/qmi_reconnect.service. DONE

3. The name of the service is qmi_reconnect. To check if the service is active you can type the following. If it is working fine then you will be able to see active(running) in green.

Uninstall

[email protected]:~ $ sudo systemctl status qmi_reconnect.service qmi_reconnect.service – QMI Auto Connection Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/qmi_reconnect.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled) Active: active (running) since Fri 2021-01-29 12:15:25 GMT; 2min 4s ago Main PID: 2730 (sh) Tasks: 4 (limit: 3861) CGroup: /system.slice/qmi_reconnect.service ├─ 2730 /bin/sh /usr/src/qmi_reconnect.sh ├─13529 sudo ./quectel-CM -s super └─13530 ./quectel-CM -s super

If you are using auto-connect/reconnect service, stop the service and disable it.

sudo systemctl stop qmi_reconnect.service
sudo systemctl disable qmi_reconnect.service

Troubleshooting

We recommend going through the section on troubleshooting as it covers the more common issues with establishing and maintaining a network connection. Please check the troubleshooting of your shield/HAT.

  1. Hi Saeed. Any idea as to why when using the qmi interface everything appears to be fine (device has an IP, route, etc…) but in fact ping fails, dns lookup will fail,…networking will fail. If I install the ppp installer everything will work perfectly.
    Thanks

    • PPP uses a dialing number to establish a data connection

      QMI does not use dialling or the PPP protocol to establish a data connection and it is usually faster than PPP mode.

      • Is QMI primarily used over USB to supply Internet to a computer? If yes, could this supply Internet to a Wireless AP, which may be a stronger hotspot that an RPi?

        Or is PPP still preferred as the hotspot method? I have my RPi 3B set up as a hotspot with the 3G/4G LTE shield, but I believe the speed should be faster. Wondering if QMI would help. Thanks.

        • Yes, the module needs to be connected via USB.
          QMI is faster than PPP. You are right, QMI will be the best choice.

        • Hey Eddie,
          Did you get this working with the QMI approach? I am trying to do the same thing… My sixfab hardware gets here in a couple days.

  2. I get:
    sudo qmicli -d /dev/cdc-wdm0 –wds-start-network=apn=’xxxx.com’ client-no-release-cid
    error: couldn’t start network: QMI protocol error (14): ‘CallFailed’
    call end reason (3): generic-no-service

    The SIM is connected I can at+cnum and I see the cell number

    I assume it means the cell network is not connected or the SIM is not in the slot. The SIM tested good in another modem. I am using a Telit LE910Cx.

    Any thoughts?

  3. I had to add a default route out of wwan0 to make it work right because I was configuring it via Wifi to make it work. It might be that.

  4. Hey Saeed,

    Thanks for this work. it makes the job much easier. QQ on the output. I have followed the guide and got it working but in my output is says “too few arguments”

  5. Hey Saaed,

    I had to rebuild my Pi for a project and I have noted now that i have put it back again I am not getting a lease from Vodafone (My carrier) on a known working SIM.

    Do I need to put anything specific into /etc/network/interfaces to cater for DHCP requests or is there anything the busybox instance would need to get a lease?

    I have tried two working SIM cards and the unit times out on getting a lease now.

      • Its ok. I recompiled it and it worked. I think I had a header mismatch in my rush to get it working. Thanks for the quick reply

      • Hi Saeed,

  6. Just got a successful connection using the QMI interface via sudo ./quectel-CM -s ‘APN’

    I would like this to run at startup automatically after each reboot, as I assume this is the only way to have the device online after reboot without manually executing sudo ./quectel-CM -s ‘APN’ is that correct?

    Any recommendations for setting this to run at startup? I’m novice but was able to write a shell script that runs sudo ./quectel-CM -s ‘APN’ (and it works) but am having trouble getting this to run automatically at startup via rc.local. For current version of Debian, it sounds like a systemd configuration would be preferable. Is systemd the best option, and if so does Sixfab have a systemd init file example that works?

  7. Hi,
    I’m trying to get my RPI (Raspbian strecht) to work with my 3G-4G/LTE Base Shield V2 with EC25 module.
    So I installed a fresh Raspbian to my RP3 and I followed every steps described in your tutorials :

    But I dont get any connection… All I have is an endless loop saying :
    “requestRegistrationState2 MCC: 466, MNC: 1, PS: Detached, DataCap: UNKNOW”
    When I launch the instruction “sudo ./quectel-CM -s internet” (as internet is my APN)

    I type “sudo apt-get update” before installation and connect two LTE antenna to Main port

    I found the log “SIMStatus: SIM_ABSENT” seems not normal.I insert sim card to the slot and change other sim card still have
    the “SIMStatus: SIM_ABSENT” log

    Usefull informations :

          Now I install auto connect.Can I staill type “sudo ./quectel-CM -s internet” in comsole for test?

          • Hi,

            Did you try with different sim too?

            If your reconnect service is active, before running sudo ./quectel-CM -s internet
            stop the reconnect service by sudo systemctl stop reconnect.service

          • hi Saeed
            I can not reply in your response so I reply here.
            “Did you try with different sim too?” —> yes I try another sim also have”AT+CPIN ERROR” result

          • Hi,

            Just sec…..

            The command need to be
            AT+CPIN?

            Don’t igonre the “?” mark at the end. 🙂

          • hi Saeed

          • Hi Could you please email us the image of your hardware setup at hello[at]sixfab [dot] com.

  8. Everything in this tutorial goes great until step 14
    I get stuck in an endless loop. Other similar posting show, make sure you do step 1. I did.
    I read this could be an antenna issue. LTE Primary, GPS and LTE Diversity are plugged in solid. I’m not sure where to go.
    My APN might be wrong. How do I know?
    ATT = pta
    ATT = broadband
    and several others…
    Any her would be greatly appreciated.

      • Could you please look at the output I get after finishing step 14 of the instructions? The first line is the commad that starts it all and the output follows
        towards the end, there is a “sending discover ….” and a “no lease, failing” that seems odd. and then there is an everlasting loop. Any help is appreciated.

          • Saeed, thank you for this great guide. I too, am facing this issue of not discovering a lease, but only using the QMI based driver.

            I have been using the PPP based driver successfully, but ssh is too bandwidth intensive for that driver, so I must use the QMI.

            I have made a detailed post to the sixfab forums here several days ago: https://sixfab.com/forums/topic/udhcp-fails-with-no-lease-failing/

            and have not received any help. Reinstallation of the driver does nothing, and I pulled the most recent copy of the installer from github as of the date of my posting.

            Do you think you can help me?

          • I did a recent apt-get upgrade && dist-upgrade and after that I too am facing the problems above. For some reason, discovery on the wwan0 interface is failing. I’m trying to re-image an old backup and see if I can get my RPI4 back up and running again as 4G hotspot.

          • Hello,

            Thank you for reaching out.

            Is the problem still present?

            Was rpi-update < tag> successful?

            what is the output your ls /usr/src/ ?

            Best regards.

          • I’ve got an RPI4, so rpi-update should not be used according to this guide. I’ll let you know how my reinstall went.

          • Output of ls /usr/src/ is:

    • You need to change the call to “netdev_upper_dev_link(real_dev, new_dev, &dev_ack)” now it takes 3 params, I have fixed in my code, but Sixfab need to fix files otherwise the qmi_install script always overwrite mods.

  10. Saeed, please advise as I too get the SIM_ABSENT message. Despite having an AT&T Sim card with your latest v2 shields.

  11. Thanks for this tutorial. I followed and was able to connect. But its disconnecting after 1min always. When i repeat “sudo ./quectel-CM -s internet” its connecting. see output below

    • What is the status of the LEDs?
      What are you using as the power source? (5V 2.5A adapter is recommended)

  12. Hi all,

    As anyone managed to use the EC-25 with the qmi interface?
    That “No resolv.conf for interface wwan0.udhcpc” seems to be persistent despite multiple attempt

  13. I was able to get everything to compile successfully, but when I try to connect using my T-Mobile SIM I never get an IP address from DHCP. Any ideas why?

    I’m using a new six fab mPCI-E Base Shield (for 3G, 4G/LTE mPCI-E modules V2) and Quectel EC25-A modem with the full-band LTE antenna attached.

  14. I have a working connection and all is fine for many hours. Then for some reason the connection drops and the sixfab device is no longer seen via usb. lsusb does not show the device and ls/dev dos not find the ttyUSB devices. a reboot of the pi does not solve the issue. The only way to recover is to power cycle the pI which in turn power cycles the six fab shield. So it looks to me that the modem is locking up and can only be recovered by a power cycle. Is there any way to reset or power cycle the modem without having to power cycle the pi. It is a remote application and I have no way to power cycle the pi when it locks up.

    • Hello,

      Did you try resetting the module? Use GPIO26 (The pin is used to hardware reset the module, by pulling it HIGH)

      How long does the module work fine?

      • Thanks that is what I was looking for. The modem can stay up for days before the issue happens. I have verified that GPIO26 resets the modem but need to let it run to see if it is enough to recover from the lock up.

  15. I was able to get connected with this process using the USB connection on my Raspberry Pi Cellular IoT HAT with Verizon SIM, however, is there a way to get the QMI connection to function as a WWAN using the RPi’s header instead of the USB cable? Similar to the PPP installer tutorial.

  16. FYI, I’ve compiled the code on a new Rpi 4 under Raspbian Buster OS and it qmi interface works fine. There are warnings that probably must be fixed.

  17. sudo ./qmi_install.sh

    • Make sure your USB is connection and the module is powered on(if you are using cellular App shield or HAT).

  18. NOTE: new kernel come out on PI 3 and 4. The qmi tools need to be recompiled against new kernel to work again. Re-execute the procedure described in this Sixfab tutorial.

  19. I followed the tutorial and am getting the following output. Im using the IOT Shield.

      • Yes it is connected and powered up. It does not seem to have the correct drivers. Here is my kernel: 4.19.57-v7+

          • Hi I have same issue, I have 5v 2.5A power supply . using IOT HAT and I have USB connected. What can I be missing ? Had issues in your other ppp tutorial so switch to qmi. As off now I haven’t had luck and been trying for a while. Any help appreciated. Thanks

  20. Hello there, how do I connect using PAP with a username and password?
    How do I change the existing config that you have outlined in your tutorial to use a different apn with username and password including auto connect?
    Thanks

    • Usage: ./quectel-CM [-s [apn [user password auth]]] [-p pincode]

      Example: ./quectel-CM -s 3gnet carl 1234 0 -p 1234

      For existing config you can edit /usr/src/qmi_reconnect.sh according to your configuration.

  21. Hi Saeed,

    In step 11 guide says “Make sure the module is disconnected before running the installer script”… What does it mean disconnected?
    a. Remove the shield altogether?
    b. Remove Quectel from its slot on the shield but leave the shield on the rpi
    c. Keep shield and Quectel module on the rpi but remove (unplug) usb cable that goes from rpi to the shield.

    Another question
    Is there a way to use the shield without using the usb cable at all? Usb cable connection totally contradicts the use of a shield.

    Thanks

  22. Hello guys i would like to add something about using this tutorial on RPi 4. Do not attach the shield until step 14. It was the only way i could make this setup work

  23. I’ve got this device working but I’m struggling to work out how to get information regarding signal strength from the device. I’ve searched far and wide on Google but can’t find anything that works for me. Ideally I’d like to log this to a file.
    Thank you in advance for your help.

  24. I followed all the steps in the tutorial and everything seemed to be working fine up until step 14.
    After I type the command: sudo ./quectel-CM -s internet, I get and endless loop of messages that reads something like this:
    [09-23_20:00:35:740] requestSetupDataCall QMUXResult = 0x1, QMUXError = 0xe

    and on and on
    Any suggestions where I might have gone wrong?
    Thank you.

    • Hello.
      This command gets into endless looop…
      You can check your connection by pinging in a new ternimal.
      ping -I wwan0 google.com

      • But if I am understanding correctly, this is the command that I need to execute to get connected to LTE. If its execution fails, it means I am not connected, right?
        In other words, how can I make “sudo ./quectel-CM -s internet” work? shouldn’t this or something like this be executed before I can ping something?

  25. On kernel 4.19.75-v7+, RPI3+, I get error when “make” drivers:

    What’s wrong?
    It was working perfectly with 4.19.66 kernel.
    Dome

  26. Dear Sir,

    I setup all your scripts as per your instructions. On boot up immediately the connectivity is established. To check if the connectivity is maintained I start ping to google.com, after some time the ping response fails and on restarting ping all ping packets are lost. On reboot, without restarting the Modem, the connectivity starts working again.

    In the above case the reconnect service should have got the connectivity back working.

    Can we identify the issue?

    I am using EC25 with RPi 3 A+

    Thanks for the scripts!
    Regards

  27. Hi,
    I have installed the software to make the auto_connect.
    But how can I uninstall this ? Or how to turn it off if I don’t want to connect automatically via QMI anymore ?
    Thanks for your time.

  28. Hello,
    can you make a Tutorial about how to check Signal Information.
    Only thing i can make runnin is minicom and at+csq. This is very few information and i also get a CSQ: 26,99. Which is very sad.

    Kind Regards

    • Hello,
      You must stop or remove the QMI service.
      sudo systemctl stop reconnect.service
      sudo systemctl disable reconnect.service

  29. I have wasted a week on this. I followed instructions exactly and it disables my keyboard – can’t even log in!

    • Hello,
      I’m sorry about that. What is the problem? How can I help you?

      Could you please share more details like, which module/Shield/HAT are you using with which RPi? Which OS are you using?

      Also, share the log if you have. Where does the keyboard get disabled?

      Have a nice day!

  30. Does it work with UC20-G? I could not get connection with RP4 and UC20-G also RP3 and UC20-G. However, it worked with RP4 and EC25.

        • By the way, my UC20-G module already had been working with RP3 with older tutorial. However, it is not working with the new QMI tutorial. I use raspbian-stretch. ifconfig log is;

  31. Hi,
    I get this error message when trying:
    sudo ./quectel-CM -s internet

    I already tried plugging and unplugging the device and it seems to be powered on. The blue LED is blinking rather slow (1 sec on, very shortly off).
    Also, I made a fresh install of Raspbian Lite.

      • Hi,
        thanks for your answer. It seems that either the micro usb-Port of the base shield or the 90° cable might have a loose connection. When I held it in my hand and then run the sudo ./quectel-CM -s internet command it worked, and I noticed that I pushed on the tip of the cable.
        Is there a place to buy a new 90° cable?
        Thanks in advance and best regards.

  32. Hello everybody

    I succesfully installed qmi_install and I can navigate through internet. It is ok !
    But I would like to access my RPI3B from internet, I found his public ip adress, but it is impossible to access via ssh. In my local network, it works fine.
    Do I have to open port somewhere in QMI connection ?

    Thanks for helping
    Serge

    • The public IP you found probably isn’t the real public IP and you are behind carrier grade NAT (CG-NAT). Unless your mobile provider supports port forwarding or gives you a private IP-address (which is unlikely), you can’t just SSH in. Perhaps a reverse SSH-tunnel using auto-ssh or add-on software can help you.

  33. Hi Saeed and Everyone,

    I have a Raspberry Pi 3G/4G&LTE Base HAT running on a raspberry pi 3. I got the GPS working and made some edits to suit my needs however there are three things I cant seem to get working after following the instructions:
    1. SMS — I am using the the guide and I just keep getting “ATE1″ whenever I run the python code. What am I doing wrong?
    2. Sixfab Connect — I just cant seem to get this to work either. The device have never showed up on the dashboard.
    2. QMI — I followed the instructions over and over and I cant get this to work. I did get PPP to work however I need more speed. I am using a Digicel Dominica 3G SIM card and get the rolling on

  35. Hi

    How can i install and use two base shields at the same time?
    I would like wwan0 (base shield 1) and wwan1 (base shield 2) both have ip address and internet connection. At the moment one base shield is ok and connected to internet and second base shield connected on top of it. It shows as wwa0, but doesn’t have ip address or connection.

    Any tips & tricks for easy or not that easy setup?

    thanks!

  36. Hi, I am cracking my mind installing this on Hypriot OS. It is a debian/raspbian based OS with full docker capabilities. We are evaluating this shields for a major client in Chile, but it is mandatory for us to run on Hypriot (only OS with docker for RPi)

    I am using RPI 3B+ and Cellular IoT HAT.
    $ ls /usr/src
    linux-headers-4.19.66+ linux-headers-4.19.66-v7+ reconnect.sh
    >> firmware updated for 4.19.66 following instructions

    On Raspbian: Configuration for the QMI using the beta plataform works great. Apparently no need to setup PAP credentials (not asked anywhere in the config)

    On Hypriot: I followed this tutorial and read every comment. I am stuck in this step (bam.entelpcs.cl is the local internet provider in chile)
    $ sudo ./quectel-CM -s bam.entelpcs.cl

    No more verbose after that.

    Cable is ok, and the shield is powered (the same hardware and sim worked in raspbian).

    • Hello,
      This error message occurs when the USB is not connected or the HAT is not powered.
      There seems to be a problem working with Hypriot OS.

      If you want, ask in the community.
      Maybe there are people using it with Hypriot OS.

  37. Hi,

    I have a problem to connect with QMI, i get a IP- Address, but ping always fails.
    With PPP is no problem and it works fine.

    Before the installation i typed sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade.

      • Hi ensar,

        I use Raspberry pi 4 and like in the Software Setup explained i skipped the steps for the RPI4.
        Yeahh i checked the connection.
        I tried to install the finish image what you provide with QMI and it works fine with these.

        Best regards

  38. Hello,
    Does the device switch from Edge to 4g when it’s possible automatically?
    And is there a command, that gives information about the DataCap?

    • It depends on your configuration. You can use AT+QCFG=”nwscanmode”(Network Search Mode Configuration) and AT+QNWINFO(Query Network Information) commands.

  39. Any chance to get this driver for ubuntu 18.04 LTS? do you plan to support other OS on raspberry pi 4 too?

    • Hi,
      Unfortunately, We do not have experience with other OS, except Raspbian and Ubuntu Core, with RPI for now.
      Best regards.

  40. Hi,
    I’m able to make/receive a call using AT COMMAND but Mic/Speaker didn’t work(mic/speaker work with others).
    Can you please share how to enable mic/speaker for call?

  41. Hi Saeed,
    The tutorial worked perfectly for DHCP.
    Now I have a static public IP and can’t figure out how to stop the ARP requests. I am using an EC25A on Base Hat on Rpi4 with a iot.tmowhosale.static APN.
    Secondary issue: unable to keep wan0 & wwan0 connections operating parallel – they knock each other off like rockem’ sockem’ robots…
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks, Mark

  42. Hello,
    For me it works well with PPP and QMI interface.
    I don’t know how to get information about 4G signal strength?
    Is there a command to get the info?

    Thanks in advance

  43. hi everyone;

    How Can I fix it?

  44. Dear Sir or Madame,
    I got a new try. I means I formatted my SD card and I did again the full install including reinstalling the last version of Raspbian. I also connected my Raspberry with an Ethernet cable to my home router. In that way, I have not configured the RPi3 WiFi.
    First, I have short question, do I need to enable that option: B2 Wait for Network at Boot ?

    I then run: sudo ./quectel-CM -s gprs.swisscom.ch -p 1234 -f /var/log/sixfab_log.txt

    Here is my output:

    The prompt did not come back and it stay at “Twoo few argument”?
    That normal?

    TX errors 0 dropped 10 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0

    Then I f I go to my first terminal and I press ctrl+c, the ifconfig does not show an IP. I supposed that normal?

    Another question. You say we can follow some additional step to auto-connect at boot. But in your example you only show how add the APN, but nothing about PIN code and log. Should be worry about that, at those steps?

    Last last question, how can I set the SSID to be able to connect with my laptop throught WiFi or with another devise?

    Many thank fro your support and help and I wish you a nice week
    Cheers

  45. why am I capped at EDGE Speed ?
    requestRegistrationState2 MCC: 302, MNC: 720, PS: Attached, DataCap: EDGE

    I use the Raspberry Pi Cellular IoT HAT – LTE-M & NB-IoT & eGPRS
    My sim supports LTE. I am in Canada.

    Chipset is BG96MA-128-SGN

    • Hi,
      It depends on your configuration. You can use AT+QCFG=”nwscanmode”(Network Search Mode Configuration) and AT+QNWINFO(Query Network Information) commands.

  46. Hi,
    Thanks for the instructions, this just worked straight from the box.
    I have a special SIM that has two APNs (private and public), is there anyway I can get both APNs active at the same time. Every time I start the second APN connection, the first connection terminates?

    Reading the EC25 datasheet, the module can support this feature.

    Cheers

  47. Hi

    I am not much familiar with linux infrastructure, but I think it is a better idea to call quectel-cm whenever a qmi_wwan is loaded. It must be something related to udev?

  48. Anyone familiar with the GNSS part?

    HW: RPi4+shield V2 + sierra wireless MC7304 (+lte-antenna).
    Communicating with the pi through wifi using putty, Pi is running raspbian.

    I’m able to retrieve LTE-data but cannot get GNSS data when running commands. This is the error i get when running –loc start & –loc-get-position-report:

    “error: couldn’t create client for the ‘loc’ service: QMI protocol error (31): ‘InvalidServiceType'”

    Any ideas on why this happens? Using ppp but dont think that should interfere with the GNSS part?

  49. Also posted this in the community but no response there… Hopefully I can get a response here because its getting pretty frustrating. Problem is that my SIM card is not detected anymore. All worked well until yesterday. SIM slot looks OK to me. No wear or damages there. SIM works fine in my phone. Tried other SIM’s (my wife’s….!) and same problem. It keeps telling me no SIM is inserted.

    I was working from the latest Rapsberry Pi OS Lite at https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/raspberry-pi-os/ currently dated 2020-05-27.

    I noticed that this OS is kernel version 4.19.118, and then after running through the “sudo apt upgrade” at step 1 in the instructions here the kernel version was 5.4.51. I tried instead restarting the process from scratch with the 4.19.118 OS and skipping the upgrade – then the quectel-CM script worked fine, and was able to get a lease. I’m not sure if the problem is specifically related to the kernel version, or to something else in the OS upgrade.

    I discovered this forum post from a couple of weeks ago:

    https://community.sixfab.com/t/solution-to-failed-to-get-dhcp-lease/600

    The solution described there (add “denyinterfaces wwan0” to bottom of /etc/dhcpcd.conf) fixed the problem, even with the OS upgrade.

  51. Hello,

    I am having a problem when attempting step 14. I have no issues until that point, running Raspbian.
    When I cd to /files/quectel-CM
    and then type ./quectel-CM -s followed by the apn,
    I receive a “command not found” error.
