RM5XXX ECM dail-up
From Waveshare Wiki
- RM5XX module is connected to the Raspberry Pi or Jetson Nano through the USB port, and then execute the command to see if the ttyUSB2 can be recognized normally. If possible, open the port through minicom:
ls /dev/ttyUSB* sudo apt-get install minicom sudo minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB2
- Send the following command through minicom, then wait for the module to restart
AT+CPIN? AT+QENG="servingcell" AT+QCFG="usbnet",1
- ifconfig to see if a usb0 network card is recognized
ifconfig -a
- Get the IP address (if there is no usb0 network card, it is also obtained through this command)
sudo ifconfig usb0 up sudo dhclient -v usb0 sudo apt-get install udhcpc sudo udhcpc -i usb0 sudo route add -net 0.0.0.0 usb0
- Test whether ping Baidu through usb0 wireless network card can connect to the Internet normally:
ping -I usb0 www.baidu.com
Note: If you need to switch to the Windows system, or restore the default settings of the module, you can send the following command through the serial port to restore:
AT+CUSBPIDSWITCH=9001,1,1
If you are using a Jetson Nano, it may be a usb1 wireless network card, and the usb0 of the corresponding command above is changed to usb1:
Set to Enable Automatic IP Acquisition (Optional)
Some Linux systems may need to enter the command to get IP after reboot, if every time you boot up, it will be more troublesome to get IP manually, you can follow the steps below to set the boot up to get IP automatically.
- Set the boot-up and open the Raspberry Pi boot configuration script:
sudo nano /etc/rc.local
- Add the startup command to the penultimate line, noting that it is the absolute path to your runtime internet file, which is the line above exit 0.
sudo dhclient -v usb0
- Verify that the boot script is in effect.
sudo /etc/rc.local
Load USB Device Descriptors
After SIM7600X changed to 9011 mode, some Linux systems cannot recognize ttyUSB*, you can load the USB device descriptor with the following command.
sudo su sudo modprobe option sudo sh -c 'echo "2c7c 0900" > /sys/bus/usb-serial/drivers/option1/new_id' sudo echo 2c7c 0900 > /sys/bus/usb-serial/drivers/generic/new_id
