Question
How-to automatically set up and maintain the cellular data connection in headless Raspberry Pi OS / Raspbian systems?
Solution
The open-source tools NetworkManager and ModemManager can be uesd to establish, control and maintain a cellular connection even if the enironment and antenna RF circumstances vary.
First ensure that the cellular module have been detected in the Raspbian system, and that Linux in-kernel driver alternatives have been loaded correctly for the USB interfaces.
This can be verified through different tools like lsusb and usb-devices, and by checking the dmesg log.
Look at the Driver output, serial interface typically use option or qcserial driver and the network interfaces typically bind to the qmi_wwan or cdc_mbim drivers.
The in-kernel drivers, as well as NetworkManager and ModemManager tools are continously improved, due to the rapid progress in wirelless connectivity. Therefore it is recommended to use fairly recent Linux kernel and distribution versions, which is more likely to have device support out of the box.

If drivers aren't loaded for all the USB interfaces, please see the following general FAQ on kernel configs and patches for cellular modules.
FAQ: Common Linux kernel modules and configs necessary for communicating with cellular modules over USB interface
On Raspberry Pi OS / Raspbian uses dhcpcd to configure networks, this causes problems for several cellular devices, so it is recommended to exclude the cellular modules wwan interfaces, see following FAQ for how-to details:
FAQ: We cannot acquire an DHCP address over qmi_wwan driver when using Raspbian Linux OS?
Update the system and install NetworkManager and ModemManager:
apt update
apt upgrade
apt install network-manager modemmanager libmbim-utils libmbim-proxy libqmi-utils libqmi-proxy
Once they are installed and services running, set the cellular module to be a managed interface for NetworkManager.
(The control interface is typically called cdc-wdm0 for cellular devices using qmi_wwan / cdc_mbim driver.)
nmcli device set cdc-wdm0 managed true
Now you can go ahead and establish the cellular data connection as described in FAQ below:

Question
How to use NetworkManager and ModemManager in Linux to automatically establish and maintain a cellular data connection?
Solution
Using NetworkManager and ModemManager in Linux to automatically establish and maintain the cellular data connection
In this FAQ we will show how to set up NetworkManager to automatically configure, establish and maintain the cellular data connection in your system.
NetworkManager and ModemManager are open source tool for Linux to manage several types of networks and interfaces such as ethernet, wifi, etc. It can also manage cellular WWAN interfaces through the ModemManager tool.
It is hosted by the Freedesktop.org community and driven by Aleksander Morgado and other contributors. please visit https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/NetworkManager and https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/ModemManager/ for latest information, source code, API reference manuals, debugging tips, contribution, mailing list etc.
ModemManager is capable of communicating over several types of device control channels such as QMI/RMNET, MBIM, MODEM / AT command etc. But support for vendor proprietary or out-of-kernel drivers are limited. Such drivers are gobinet, simcom_wwan and other drivers provided by the vendors directly.
Many Linux distributions have NetworkManager and ModemManager pre-installed or they can typically easily be installed through the systems package manager.
In Ubuntu for example apt can install it for you by command:
apt install network-manager
Check with commands below that you have both tools installed in system and their versions.
NetworkManager -V
ModemManager -V
ModemManager (and NetworkManager) are continuously developed for better compatibility with the cellular devices, therefore it is recommend to use a recent version of the tools and in case of problem situations, evaluate the latest versions from source and check the mailing list archives for possible discussions on the problem experienced.
Keep in mind that NetworkManager and ModemManager projects are not directly developed or driven by the cellular device vendors and the compatibility with the device you aim to use can be limited. Some vendors contribute with code to make their devices fully compatible, while others don't. Many cellular devices can be set to expose standardized types of USB network interface and control channel such as MBIM interface by USB-IF or the Qualcomm proprietary interface QMI that ModemManager will try to identify, and often manage to work successfully with but there are exceptions also.
Both NetworkManager and ModemManager have command line interfaces (nmcli and mmcli respectively) where you can interact with the management tools.
Relate to the following FAQ if you want more details for using ModemManager only to configure and control the cellular device but manually establish, maintain the connection and network interface IP address details.
How-to guide: control and set up a data connection in Linux using ModemManager as connection manager?
Have ModemManager list all the cellular device it has detected. Here we use the Alcatel IK41 series with MBIM interface in this example:
mmcli --list-modems
/org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/Modem/0 [Alcatel] Mobilebroadband
General details and status of them modem can be listed with "--modem" option.

Check that the cellular device is managed by NetworkManager by not having state "unmanaged" listed for it.
nmcli device status
DEVICE TYPE STATE CONNECTION
cdc-wdm0 gsm disconnected --
enp3s0 ethernet unmanaged --
lo loopback unmanaged --
Now you should create a connection profile in NetworkManager for your specific network carrier and SIM card with the "nmcli connection add" command:
For example:
nmcli connection add type gsm ifname '*' con-name '3-sweden' apn 'data.tre.se' connection.autoconnect yes gsm.pin 0000
- type is gsm for all typical cellular connections unless it is of cdma type.
- ifname is the control interface name, in this case cdc-wdm0, wildcard can be used also to have it autoselect.
- con-name is the profile name you want to give it.
- apn is provided by your network carrier and tells the modem what attach point it should use for the data connection.
- connection.autoconnect set to yes will make NetworkManager always try to auto connect and maintain this profile connection.
- gsm.pin lets you provide a pin code for the SIM card, that NetworkManager will try to use if PIN check is enabled for SIM card.
There are several additional commands and attributes available such as username and password settings for the APNs etc. Refer to the NetworkManager help and manual pages for full details on the commands.
If successful you should receive a reply similar to this one:
Connection '3-sweden' (cad6fcbf-2cb1-4796-b7e6-67b9f9635aef) successfully added.
You can check the status now by command:
nmcli device status
DEVICE TYPE STATE CONNECTION
cdc-wdm0 gsm connected 3-sweden
enp3s0 ethernet unmanaged --
lo loopback unmanaged --
Where connected should be listed as state if the connection establishment was successful.
If the connection is not successful or you want more details about the device and connection you can check commands:
You can list the current status with command:
nmcli radio

Question
How-to guide: How can we control, configure and establish a simple data connection for a cellular module in Linux systems using the open source ModemManager tool for modem control and connection management.
Solution
ModemManager is a open source tool for Linux that can be used to communicate with cellular devices for configuration, status check, connection triggering etc. It is capable of communicate over several types of device control channels such as QMI/RMNET, MBIM, MODEM / AT command etc.
It is hosted by the Freedesktop.org community and driven by Aleksander Morgado and other contributors, please visit https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/ModemManager/ for latest information, source code, API reference manuals, debugging tips, contribution, mailing list etc.
Keep in mind that ModemManager is not directly developed or driven by cellular device vendors and the compatibility cannot be guaranteed for the specific device you aim to use. Some vendors contribute with code to make their devices fully compatible, while others don't. However many cellular devices can be set to expose standardized types of USB network interface and control channel such as MBIM interface by USB-IF or the Qualcomm proprietary interface QMI that ModemManager will try to identify, and often manage to work successfully with.
Before continuing with ModemManager, a good thing to ensure is that you have common Linux driver modules available in your kernel build.
You can compare your own systems kernel config with the ones listed in the following FAQ:
Common Linux kernel modules and configs necessary for communicating with cellular modules over USB interface
Selections of these are commonly used by cellular devices and need to be available in order to have device drivers correctly loaded when devices are detected.
Start by installing ModemManager and its dependencies to your Linux system.
You can build it from source code release tarball found at freedesktop.org (install instructions included in the archive)
If you have a package manager in your Linux distribution, it can usually be installed through them also.
E.g. on Ubuntu using apt to install it and related dependencies:
apt install modemmanager libmbim-utils libqmi-utils
Keep in mind that Linux distributions sometimes rely on fairly old releases in their repositories and the development of ModemManager, libqmi and libmbim are on-going continuously. So is also the development of the cellular devices when the cellular technologies evolve. It is therefore recommended that you have a fairly recent version of ModemManager, libqmi and libmbim running in your system as well as when it comes to kernel version since the driver modules sometimes acquire patch fixes to be compatible with new chipset features etc.
Check Freedesktop.org pages for details on the latest ModemManager, NetworkManager, Libqmi and Libmbim releases.
Once you've installed ModemManager and rebooted your system, the service daemon should be running already in background.
Mmcli is the related command line interface tool which can be used to interact with ModemManager daemon through command line commands.
Check the version by command:
mmcli -V

From here we can see the IP details we've been assigned by the cellular network.
ModemManager does not assign IPv4 address details to the cellular modules network interface in Linux by itself.
When ModemManager is used in conjunction with NetworkManager and the cellular connection is managed by it, then the IPv4 address details will be collected by NetworkManager through ModemManager and automatically assigned to network interface when connection is established.
If the system does not implement NetworkManager, then the IP and routing configuration needs to be handled by user software/scripting.
Example:
Enable network interface in Linux:
ip link set wwan0 up
Set the IPv4 address acquired from bearer information above, the CIDR subnet mask can always be set to 32:
ip addr add 2.68.206.100/32 dev wwan0
Disable ARP:
ip link set dev wwan0 arp off
Set MTU value acquired from network:
ip link set dev wwan0 mtu 1500
Add a default or other type of route to the cellular network device (e.g. with a metric to set which route to prefer)
ip route add default dev wwan0 metric 200
Add the DNS servers reported by cellular network or use other public/desired ones.
DNS server addresses are handled in different ways depending on the Linux distribution and network manager used. Therefore please refer to related dist documentation for best practice to add / maintain DNS server addresses in your specific system.
sh -c "echo 'nameserver 80.251.201.177' >> /etc/resolv.conf"
sh -c "echo 'nameserver 80.251.201.178' >> /etc/resolv.conf"
We should now have a network interface passing data successfully, we can try it out by doing ping requests:

Question
How-to change the cellular modulesUSB composition mode to Mobile Broadband Interface Model (MBIM) used by Windows 8 and 10 systems for controlling and establishing data connectivity through the built-in connection manager in Windows?
Solution
This is done by sending a set of AT commands to the cellular modules Modem or AT serial interface found in Windows Device Manager. Please see list below for associated AT commands.
(For additional details, refer to the product specific software, ports, and AT commands guides found on the Techship product web pages under technical documentation tab).
After the AT commands have been received by the module and has restarted, the USB interface endpoint composition should have changed to include MBIM interface as well.
You can find the correct Serial COM port number by checking Windows Device Manager, under the Modems drop down -> (right click and see properties for selected COM port info) or under the Ports (COM & LPT) drop down.
Vendor specific commands to use:
Sierra Wireless EM74xx, MC74xx series module:

Question
What Linux kernel modules and configs are commonly used for communicating with cellular modules over their USB interface?
Solution
Most cellular modules can be supported in Linux by using som of the in-kernel drivers. The physical data interface to the host Linux system is usually done over USB which enumerates a set of different endpoints/interfaces. A set of serial interfaces for Modem/PPP, AT commands, NMEA location data and chipset debug information are almost always available in all configurations.
In addition some type of network endpoint/interface are also available and exposed. This can vary between manufacturers and chipset vendors and can also commonly be configurable by using USB configuration mode switching or through vendor specific AT commands.
Recommended kernel configurations to enable are listed bellow. Many cellular modules base their Linux support on these modules and drivers. Once included in the kernel build, the USB interfaces will be detected and bound correctly out-of-the-box or after applying source code patches to the driver modules.
Configs for USB serial drivers:
CONFIG_USB_SERIAL
CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_GENERIC
CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_WWAN
CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_OPTION
CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_QUALCOMM
CONFIG_USB_ACM
Configs for Modem/PPP support:
CONFIG_PPP
CONFIG_PPP_BSDCOMP
CONFIG_PPP_DEFLATE
CONFIG_PPP_FILTER
CONFIG_PPP_MPPE
CONFIG_PPP_MULTILINK
CONFIG_PPPOE
CONFIG_PPP_ASYNC
CONFIG_PPP_SYNC_TTY
Configs for USB network drivers:
CONFIG_USB_USBNET
CONFIG_USB_NET_QMI_WWAN
CONFIG_USB_NET_CDCETHER
CONFIG_USB_NET_RNDIS_HOST
CONFIG_USB_NET_CDC_NCM
CONFIG_USB_NET_HUAWEI_CDC_NCM
CONFIG_USB_NET_CDC_MBIM
Please relate to the Techship product specific web pages for vendor specific Linux integration guides.

Question
How to set up a simple data connection over Qualcomm QMI interface using libqmi and driver qmi_wwan in Linux?
Solution
Several cellular modules based on Qualcomm chipsets implements the Qualcomm MSM QMI RMNET Interface.
There is a open source Linux in-kernel driver supporting this interface called qmi_wwan. The helper library libqmi can be used to communicate with the cellular devices over the interface and do cellular module configurations to control and trigger the data connection over the cellular network.
Install the libqmi Linux library using e.g. your OS package manager like apt etc.
(Check out the official libqmi page here: https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/libqmi/)
Please be aware that libqmi is a 3rd party software not distributed by the chipset or module vendors. So full compatibility on all available commands should not be expected.
There are Qualcomm chipset standard QMI commands and in addition vendors specific custom QMI commands not supported by all manufacturers, but still available in libqmi. There are also new QMI commands not supported in older chipsets and vice versa, old QMI commands no longer supported in new chipset series.
Verify that you have the Linux in-kernel qmi_wwan driver installed and loaded for the cellular modules QMI interface endpoint over USB:
lsusb -t
Can look like this:
...
|__ Port 1: Dev 3, If 2, Class=Vendor Specific Class, Driver=qmi_wwan, 480M
...
If the driver is not loaded correctly, please verify that the cellular module is set to expose QMI RMNET network interface endpoint in its configuration. How to do so can often be found in AT commands guides, Linux implementation guides and similar from the cellular module vendors.
Libqmi library include a command line tool qmicli that can be used in a more convenient way communicate directly with the module over QMI interface for testing, scripting and troubleshooting.
The qmicli help will output information about all commands available:
qmicli --help-all
The qmi_wwan network control interfaces for modules are usually named like cdc-wdm# under /dev/ path.
Use the attribute --device or -d to specify it for qmicli in your command execution:
qmicli --device=/dev/cdc-wdm0
qmicli -d /dev/cdc-wdm0
In order to ease usage of the QMI interface and handle parallell command requests, libqmi include a proxy function to handle it correctly on the QMI interface, To use it, make sure to have the the attribute present in the qmicli command:
-p
--device-open-proxy
Example commands on how to communicate
Request module manufacturer:
qmicli -p -d /dev/cdc-wdm0 --dms-get-manufacturer
Get module model:
qmicli -p -d /dev/cdc-wdm0 --dms-get-model
Get firmware version:
qmicli -p -d /dev/cdc-wdm0 --dms-get-revision
Get module IDs (IMEI etc.):
qmicli -p -d /dev/cdc-wdm0 --dms-get-ids
Get SIM card status:
qmicli -p -d /dev/cdc-wdm0 --uim-get-card-status
The script qmi-network can be used to establish a simple data connection, it will automatically try to verify the IP framing type match them correctly between qmi_wwan driver and module (Raw-IP vs. 802.3 IP framing).
Create a config file containing your network operator APN details and if needed, the username and password.
Save it e.g. in the default location /etc/qmi-network.conf
The parameter --profile=[PATH] can be used to define the path to config when executing qmi-network.
Example config file content: APN details and enabling of proxy usage.
Add the username and password lines if it is needed for your APN:
APN=my-network-operators-apn
APN_USER=my-apn-username
APN_PASS=my-apn-password
PROXY=yes
Once the APN information is saved, you can start the network connection with the command:
qmi-network /dev/cdc-wdm0 start
The name of the related network interface in the Linux system can be acquired with the command:
qmicli -p -d /dev/cdc-wdm0 --get-wwan-iface
Once you see "Network started successfully" message, you can send a DHCP request on the network interface.
Please note that not all DHCP clients in Linux can handle Raw-IP format but udhcpc support it.
udhcpc -q -f -i wwan0
The IP information from the cellular network can also be acquired and set manually to the network interface by the user or scripting, the correct address details can be acquired from the cellular module over QMI with command:
qmicli -p -d /dev/cdc-wdm0 --wds-get-current-settings
If the connection was successfully set up and established, you now have a data connection. Ping request to a remote server using the cellular network interface can prove this:
ping -I wwan0 8.8.8.8
The ifconfig Linux tool can show the current details for the network interface:
ifconfig wwan0
To bring down and stop the cellular network connection, please use the stop command bellow:
qmi-network /dev/cdc-wdm0 stop
The ModemManager tool for Linux is based on libqmi. NetworkManager and ModemManager . Please note however that these two tools expect the cellular module interfaces to only be used by them so if you manually want to use the libqmi library or AT commands interfaces, please turn off/disable ModemManager and NetworkManager first.
The libqmi is a generic open source library for Linux systems and QMI protocol from Qualcomm, therefor there are several commands only working on selected devices and not necessarily on supported in the specific device you use, resulting in an error message.

Question
We cannot acquire an DHCP address over qmi_wwan driver when using Raspbian Linux OS?
Solution
Raspbian uses dhcpd to probe all available network interfaces found in the system, which is problematic for the qmi_wwan driver interface, if it is done before being configured properly when using cellular modules supporting only Raw-IP.
This can be avoided by setting dhcpd to deny the related cellular module network interface (most often named wwan0 by the system).
Add to the /etc/dhcpcd.conf file in Raspbian the following line (in the end):
denyinterfaces wwan0
Now, restart the system (preferably re-power it) so cellular module fully restarts also.
At next startup, the settings should be applied and you can now configure and use the qmi interface as described in some of the others faq's, found on the Techship webpage.

Question
How can we use Sierra Wireless MC/EM74 and EM75 series cellular modules in Linux with the MBIM control and data interface?
Solution
The Sierra Wireless MC/EM74 and EM75 series cellular modules can expose the Mobile Broadband Interface Model (MBIM) Interface.
There is a open source Linux in-kernel driver supporting MBIM interface and it is called cdc_mbim. The library libmbim can be used to communicate with the cellular devices over the interface and do necessary configurations to trigger the data connection over the cellular network.
First install the libmbim and libmbim-utils Linux library using your system package manager like apt etc. (more details about libmbim here: https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/libmbim/)
Check with lsusb that you have the Sierra wireless module loaded, vid:pid value 1199:9091 or 1199:9071 should be present.
lsusb
Bus 002 Device 003: ID 1199:9091 Sierra Wireless, Inc.
or:
Bus 002 Device 003: ID 1199:9071 Sierra Wireless, Inc.
Verify with lsusb -t that the Linux in-kernel cdc_mbim driver is correctly loaded for the cellular module. It can look e.g. like this:
lsusb -t
...
|__ Port 3: Dev 3, If 0, Class=Vendor Specific Class, Driver=qcserial, 5000M
|__ Port 3: Dev 3, If 2, Class=Vendor Specific Class, Driver=qcserial, 5000M
|__ Port 3: Dev 3, If 3, Class=Vendor Specific Class, Driver=qcserial, 5000M
|__ Port 3: Dev 3, If 12, Class=Communications, Driver=cdc_mbim, 5000M
|__ Port 3: Dev 3, If 13, Class=CDC Data, Driver=cdc_mbim, 5000M
...
If this is not the case, you will have to change USB end points the cellular module exposes. This can be done through AT commands sent to the modules serial interfaces accepting AT commands. Usually located at dev/ttyUSB2 if the qcserial drivers are correctly loaded.
MC74xx/EM74xx series:
AT!ENTERCND="A710"
AT#USBCOMP=1,1,100D
AT!RESET
EM75xx series:
AT!ENTERCND="A710"
AT#USBCOMP=1,3,100D
AT!RESET
(Applications like Minicom or Picocom can be used to send AT commands over the serial interfaces)
Should you have no serial interface loaded, it is because the driver has not been loaded for the USB serial endpoints due to missing vid:pid values in the qcserial driver. You can then use the commands bellow to temporarily load the driver for new vid:pid combinations.
modprobe qcserial
EM75 series:
echo 1199 9091 > /sys/bus/usb-serial/drivers/qcserial/new_id
MC74xx/EM74xx series:
echo 1199 9071 > /sys/bus/usb-serial/drivers/qcserial/new_id
When you have changed the cellular modules USB endpoint configuration to expose MBIM interface and module have restarted, then you can use libmbim's command line interface to control the cellular module.
Using libmbim with the command line interface mbimcli:
List all available options for mbimcli:
mbimcli --help-all
Check version
mbimcli --version
The cellular modules mbim interface is usually named cdc-wdm* among the devices. For mbimcli this is defined by --device=/dev/cdc-wdm0 parameter. You should also use the proxy function to enable parallel commands to be sent to module even if the interface already is in use by a data connection. This is done by including --device-open-proxy or -p in every mbimcli requst to module.
Command example to query device capabilities and information (firmware & IMEI code etc.):
mbimcli --device=/dev/cdc-wdm0 --device-open-proxy --query-device-caps
The libmbim tool: mbim-network can be used to establish a simple data connection.
First create a config file containing your network operators APN details. Save it in the default location where mbim-network searches for the file: /etc/mbim-network.conf .
The parameter --profile=[PATH] can be used to alter this path when executing mbim-network.
Save the APN details, (and username, password and authentication type if necessary) into the configuration file:
APN=
APN_USER=
APN_PASS=
APN_AUTH=
PROXY=yes
How to start a data connection after configuration file is in place:
Enter SIM PIN (if necessary for SIM card):
mbimcli -d /dev/cdc-wdm0 -p --enter-pin=1234
Start the mbim data connection with command bellow, if successful it will print "Network started successfully"
mbim-network /dev/cdc-wdm0 start
You can now execute the mbim-set-ip script (download found bellow related to this FAQ) with sufficient system privileges:
./mbim-set-ip /dev/cdc-wdm0 wwan0
This script will collect the network interface IP configurations from the cellular module over MBIM interface using mbimcli, parse them and apply them to the network interface in Linux, this because DHCP requests are generally not supported over MBIM interfaces.
Once you have started the data connection and set the details with the mbim-set-ip script you should be able to ping the data connection:
IPv4 ping: (only supported if IPv4 address was acquired from cellular module)
ping -4 -I wwan0 8.8.8.8
ping -4 -I wwan0 google.com
IP v6 ping: (only supported if IPv6 address was acquired from cellular module)
ping -6 -I wwan0 2001:4860:4860::8888
ping -6 -I wwan0 google.com
The cellular data connection can be disconnected by commands:
Stop mbim data connection:
mbim-network /dev/cdc-wdm0 stop
Set network interface down:
ip link set wwan0 down
Other useful commands:
Query device capabilities and information (firmware & IMEI code etc.):
mbimcli -d /dev/cdc-wdm0 -p --query-device-caps
Query SIM card information:
mbimcli -d /dev/cdc-wdm0 -p --query-subscriber-ready-status
Query network registration state:
mbimcli -d /dev/cdc-wdm0 -p --query-registration-state
Query connection ip information:
mbimcli -d /dev/cdc-wdm0 -p --query-ip-configuration=0
Test setup:
Software: Ubuntu server 18.04 LTS with kernel 4.15.0-23-generic and mbimcli 1.14.2
Hardware: Sierra Wireless EM7565 with firmware SWI9X50C_01.07.00.00 on Aaeon UP Squared host board with 10703 M.2 to USB 3.0 Adapter.
Question
How can we use the Linux NetworkManager and ModemManager applications that are built into many recent Linux desktop distributions (such as Ubuntu) with Sierra Wireless MC/EM74 and EM75 series cellular module to establish and set up a data connection?
Solution
When using NetworkManager and ModemManager that are pre-installed in many common Linux distributions, best compatibility can be reached when the cellular module is set to expose the MBIM interface endpoints to the host system over the USB interface. The MBIM interface driver is often automatically detected and loaded without the need to configure and add additional drivers to the kernel via rebuild.
In factory default configuration the Sierra Wireless modules do expose the QMI interfaces as well as a set of serial interfaces, this is the correct USB endpoints if the modules are used with the Sierra Wireless recommended GobiNet and GobiSerial drivers.
However if you want to use the module with MBIM interface instead, you can change the exposed USB endpoint configuration by sending the module the following AT command on the Modem serial interface (usually dev/ttyUSB2 in Linux systems):
MC74xx/EM74xx series:
AT!ENTERCND="A710"
AT#USBCOMP=1,1,100D
AT!RESET
EM75xx series:
AT!ENTERCND="A710"
AT#USBCOMP=1,3,100D
AT!RESET
(please note ModemManager can occupy and interfere on the Modem/AT serial interface so it is recommended to stop its process first)
This will configure and reset the module and when module is re-detected in the host system again, the endpoints exposed have changed and the cdc_mbim driver should have been automatically loaded for the cellular module, this can be verified with the command:
lsusb -t
By restarting ModemManager and NetworkManager or the complete host system, the Sierra Wireless cellular module should be automatically detected by both ModemManager as well as NetworkManager.
The graphical user interface in the Linux operating system can now be used to configure the PIN code and your network operators APN connection details and establish the data connection.
If you want to control NetworkManager by Linux command line, a guide and example is well documented in the following guides:
ModemManager:
https://docs.ubuntu.com/core/en/stacks/network/modem-manager/docs/configuring-cellular-connections
NetworkManager:
https://docs.ubuntu.com/core/en/stacks/network/network-manager/docs/configure-cellular-connections
Please note that DHCP clients are most often not supported for the cellular modules when MBIM interface is used, therefore this IP connection information should be collected via the ModemManager from the modules data bearer details. NetworkManager will do this automatically for you, so it is recommended to use NetworkManager together with ModemManager also when possible.
Question
Why should we use USB3 instead of USB2 as host system data interface if the cellular module can support both?
Solution
Cellular modules supporting higher data throughput rates like LTE Advanced, category 6 and above (300Mbps downlink and 50Mbps uplink) often support both USB3 interface as well as USB2 interface towards the host system.
It is recommended to implement and use the USB3 data interface rather than the older USB2 interface on these modules between host system and the cellular module. This because USB3 can support around 10 times higher data throughput rate compared to USB2 and avoid a possible bottleneck / limitation in the data interface between host and cellular module.
If a miniPCIe based cellular module implementing USB3 are used, please verify that conflicts don't occur towards your hosts miniPCIe socket, as the USB3 interface is not implemented by default in the miniPCIe standard and therefore signal collisions can happen between USB3 pins and PCIe data interface pins situated on same locations. Refer to the cellular module hardware guides and host system hardware guides to verify this.
