Wireless
The FWA-T011-4CA1S provides an LTE module and SIM card socket to provide 4G wireless
connectivity as a backup network or to support broadband wireless access in remote
locations.
The Wireless module can support several worldwide carriers via upgrading corresponding
firmware. Please contact your local Advantech representative to get approval carriers list.
In our example, we use
qmi dirver, modem manager command line and network manager
command line
(provided start_lte_by_mmcli_nmcli.sh) to start the connection of UMTS/LTE
network data session.
NOTE:
The default modem manager command line and network manager in Ubuntu 18 need to be
updated. The following versions were tested and worked OK in QSL 1.00.
Package: modemmanager
Version: 1.6.8-2ubuntu1
Priority: optional
Section: net
Package: network-manager
Version: 1.10.6-2ubuntu1
Priority: optional
Section: net

Run start_lte_by_mmcli_nmcli.sh to establish the connection
Execute the script to establish the connection:

This is the example that we use the script and CHT SIM card to access google.com.tw
Please note to access internet by domain name, set DNS=8.8.8.8 (please change to your
local DNS server) in /etc/system/resolved.conf, and restart systemd-resolved service
