Hi, I am using Balena with attached Rpi3, Ubuntu 20.04 is installed on it. I am trying to use LTE communication, so i installed sim card and EG25-G modem. Now i invoked mmcli -m 0 and see that Ubuntu can see a modem. But new interface was not created (ip a). Maybee somebody know, how to bring Ubuntu to work with cellular network?

Hi,

Did you make a connection for NetworkManager in /boot/system-connections/ ?

Something like

[connection]
id=gsm
type=gsm

[gsm]
number=*99#

[ipv4]
dns-search=
method=auto

[ipv6]
addr-gen-mode=stable-privacy
dns-search=
method=auto

Hello @BladesMaster ,

Were you able to try @TJvV 's suggestion? If that still doesn’t work, do you see the device listed on nmcli dev?
