# Quectel EG25-G GSM Modem
|
||||
|
||||
## Kernel Changes
|
||||
This package requires the Spiri Mu kernel and modifications to the following files:
|
||||
* drivers/usb/serial/option.c
|
||||
* drivers/usb/serial/usb_wwan.c
|
||||
* drivers/net/usb/qmi_wwan.c
|
||||
* drivers/net/usb/Makefile
|
||||
|
||||
It also requires these new files:
|
||||
* drivers/net/usb/GobiUSBNet.c
|
||||
* drivers/net/usb/QMI.c
|
||||
* drivers/net/usb/QMI.h
|
||||
* drivers/net/usb/QMIDevice.c
|
||||
* drivers/net/usb/QMIDevice.h
|
||||
* drivers/net/usb/Structs.h
|
||||
|
||||
All these modifications and additions are part of the Spiri Mu kernel. The files are represented in https://git.spirirobotics.com/Spiri/mu_kernel_sources as symlinks from this repository.
|
||||
## Quectel Setup
|
||||
The Quectel should be conencted to a ConnectTech's Elroy board.
|
||||
The Quectel module requires to connect the antenna on the MAIN and GNSS sockets.
|
||||
Make sure to use a SIM card with full access to the mobile network.
|
||||
|
||||
## Installation
|
||||
|
||||
Clone the repository:
|
||||
```
|
||||
cd ~/git
|
||||
git clone https://git.spirirobotics.com/Spiri/mu_packages.git
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Create a udhcpc symbolic link:
|
||||
```
|
||||
cd /bin
|
||||
sudo ln -s busybox udhcpc
|
||||
mkdir ~/git/ && cd ~/git/
|
||||
git clone https://git.spirirobotics.com/dchvs/eg25-g.git
|
||||
cd eg25-g/
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Create udhcpc directories, copy in the script, and give it execution permission:
|
||||
```
|
||||
sudo mkdir -p /usr/share/udhcpc
|
||||
sudo mkdir -p /etc/udhcpc/
|
||||
sudo cp ~/git/mu_packages/eg25-g/default.script /usr/share/udhcpc
|
||||
sudo cp ~/git/mu_packages/eg25-g/default.script /etc/udhcpc
|
||||
sudo cp quectel-CM/default.script /usr/share/udhcpc/
|
||||
sudo cp quectel-CM/default.script /etc/udhcpc/
|
||||
|
||||
sudo chmod +x /usr/share/default.script
|
||||
sudo chmod +x /etc/udhcpc/default.script
|
||||
```
|
||||
Create a udhcpc symbolic link:
|
||||
```
|
||||
sudo ln -s /bin/busybox /bin/udhcpc
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Build the application:
|
||||
```
|
||||
cd ~/git/mu_packages/eg25-g/quectel-CM
|
||||
cd quectel-CM/quectel-CM
|
||||
make
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Running
|
||||
The following command launches the package, with [apn-name] being substituted with the APN of the wireless provider. For BICS, the APN is bicsapn. To run this in the background, add & to the end of the command.
|
||||
```
|
||||
sudo ./git/mu_packages/eg25-g/quectel-CM/quectel -s [apn-name]
|
||||
sudo ~/git/eg25-g/quectel-CM/quectel-CM -s [apn-name] &
|
||||
```

#### Kernel Changes
|
||||
The Driver for the EG25-G Quectel module consists has the following structure on the Kernel space side, for interfacing it and adding its Network packets transmisions on Kernel.
|
||||
|
||||
.
|
||||
├── kernel
|
||||
└── kernel-4.9-spiri
|
||||
└── drivers
|
||||
└── net

||||
└── usb
|
||||
├── GobiUSBNet.c

├── QMI.h
|
||||
└── Structs.h
|
||||
|
||||
In order to add the Driver to the Kernel, the following reference Kernel files are patched:
|
||||
|
||||
* drivers/usb/serial/option.c
|
||||
* drivers/usb/serial/usb_wwan.c
|
||||
* drivers/net/usb/qmi_wwan.c
