followed
by
the
enter
key,
and
you
should
have
an
entry
similar
to
the
one
below:
Bus
001
Device
002:
ID
1bc7:1201
Telit
If so, the modem is connected properly. If not, verify the modem is connected properly
and
run
the
command
again.
2.6
Ubuntu
Only:
Load
the
“option”
Driver
The Skywire modem does not properly enumerate automatically, if at all, under Ubuntu.
To
enumerate
the
device,
we
need
to
load
the
“option”
driver.
To
get
our
device’s
ID,
type
the
following
command:
#
lsusb
followed by the Enter key. There should be a device listed according to the following
format
that
says
“Telit”:
Bus
001
Device
002:
ID
1bc7:1201
Telit
Make note of the eight-character hex code right before “Telit”. In the case of a
SW-LTE-TSVG,
it
is
“1bc7:1201”.
To
load
the
option
driver,
type
the
following
into
the
Terminal:
#
modprobe
option
#
echo
1bc7
1201
>
/sys/bus/usb-
serial/drivers/option1/new_id

Write
PPP
Scripts
We
need
to
write
two
scripts
for
PPP
to
reference
when
initializing
the
connection.
Note: We have a GitHub page with the necessary PPP files available for
customers
to
use
located
here:
https://github.com/NimbeLink/skywire-ppp-scripts
We highly recommend downloading that repo and following the instructions in
the files related to your modem. The other recommended option is to click on the
file
you
want
and
copy
and
paste
directly
from
GitHub.
First, clone the repo and navigate to the cloned repo. Next, as superuser (root) copy the
file:
att-TNAG
to:
/etc/ppp/peers/
or
copy-and-paste
the
contents
of:
