## 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.
|
|
|
|
## 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
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
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 chmod +x /usr/share/default.script
|
|
sudo chmod +x /etc/udhcpc/default.script
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Build the application:
|
|
```
|
|
cd ~/git/mu_packages/eg25-g/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]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Troubleshooting
|
|
If the modem is correctly connected to the system, the following command will show the GSM modem attaching to ttyUSB0, ttyUSB1, ttyUSB2, and ttyUSB3:
|
|
```
|
|
dmesg | grep GSM
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If the modem has successfully connected to a tower and is being served an IP address, then the following command will show an IP address being served:
|
|
```
|
|
ifconfig eth1
|
|
```
