OpenWrt ModemManager

Description

Cellular modem control and connectivity

Optional libraries libmbim and libqmi are available. Your modem may require additional kernel modules and/or the usb-modeswitch package.

Usage

Once installed, you can configure the 2G/3G/4G modem connections directly in /etc/config/network as in the following example:

config interface 'broadband'
    option device      '/sys/devices/platform/soc/20980000.usb/usb1/1-1/1-1.2/1-1.2.1'
    option proto       'modemmanager'
    option apn         'ac.vodafone.es'
    option allowedauth 'pap chap'
    option username    'vodafone'
    option password    'vodafone'
    option pincode     '7423'
    option iptype      'ipv4'
    option lowpower    '1'

Only 'device' and 'proto' are mandatory options, the remaining ones are all optional.

The 'allowedauth' option allows limiting the list of authentication protocols. It is given as a space-separated list of values, including any of the following: 'pap', 'chap', 'mschap', 'mschapv2' or 'eap'. It will default to allowing all protocols.

The 'iptype' option supports any of these values: 'ipv4', 'ipv6' or 'ipv4v6'. It will default to 'ipv4' if not given.
