I am trying to use a RM520N-GL 5G HAT with my Vicharak Axon board.
The board detects the modem in lsusb, but I don’t see a usb0 network interface, so I cannot connect to the internet.
Could you please help with:
I just want to get a stable 5G data connection working.
Thanks!
Basically, For that you required driver.
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
After that sudo reboot, in order to apply kernel into device.
Will Make guide for setting up 5G module.
Meanwhile you can explore using mmcli command.
Make sure Module is in USB mode,
You can be set it using below command.
Connect HAT To Axon and Attach Module in M.2 Connector.
Connect USB To Type-C Cable to Module to Axon USB and turn on Axon.
You can check usb devices are generated on tty like,
lsusb
sudo minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB2
Run below AT Commands.
AT+QCFG="data_interface",0,0
AT+QCFG="usbnet",1
Power off Axon.
Turn on Axon again and run mmcli -L.
Check on which device number module is detected, like
vicharak@vicharak:~$ mmcli -L
/org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/Modem/0 [Quectel] RM520N-GL
Check module applied is or not.
You cab check by running below command.
