I am trying to connect to a 4G LTE network using Huawei E3372 modem.
ifconig
shows a wwan0
interface when the modem is connected.
This is what it looks like:
wwan0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 46:b7:f0:cb:22:c2
inet6 addr: fe80::d47d:591e:63c:8136/64 Scope:Link
UP BROADCAST RUNNING NOARP MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1

TX packets:31 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
RX bytes:0 (0.0 B) TX bytes:8057 (7.8 KiB)
And lsusb
gives me this:
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ lsusb

However , I am not able to connect to the internet using this , I tried wvdial and sakis3g but they failed. How do I find the port of this device? How do I configure the APN? Please Help.
wwan
interface until he/she usedqmi-network
. Unfortunately there's not a lot of documentation about that online, but it does have a texinfo manual if you install the package (see the end ofman qmi-network
about that...info
based docs are a bit awkward...). – goldilocks♦ Feb 16 '18 at 15:26sudo qmi-network /dev/cdc-wdm0 start
I get this:root@raspberrypi:/home/pi# sudo qmi-network /dev/cdc-wdm0 start Loading profile... APN: airtelgprs.com Starting network with 'qmicli -d /dev/cdc-wdm0 --wds-start-network=airtelgprs.com --client-no-release-cid'... error: couldn't create client for the 'wds' service: CID allocation failed in the CTL client: Transaction timed out error: network start failed, client not allocated
