Accidentally typed AT#USBCFG=5

I accidentally typed AT#USBCFG=5 and cannot access the modem/HAT anymore through the serial USB ports. Is there a way to recover from this?

I have an rp4 and Raspberry Pi 3G/4G&LTE Base HAT and a Telit LE910C1-EU. I tried to debug an issue where I do not connect with a fixed IP address APN (open.vodavone.nl). I do get a connection on live.vodafone.com. While trying to understand what happened, I typed AT#USBCFG=5 and now my USB Serial ports are gone.

Thanks,

I was able to recover and access the modem by hooking the hat up to a windows machine (parallels). And installed the Telit windows drivers and at the Telit AT Controller. Trying all serial ports, one responded and I was able to set the USB config to 4 again. AT#USBCFG=4

Thanks!

I am in a very similar situation, but I accidentally typed AT#USBCFG=3.

I have a Windows 10 laptop and installed the telit AT controller, but the installer couldn’t start the qcmtusvc Windows service during the installation of the WHQL drivers so the install fails. I’ve tried a couple different ways to start the service manually, but I am unable.

I tried soldering the SJ7 and SJ8 jumpers and try to connect with an FTDI cable, but that didn’t work either (I could connect to the FTDI’s usb serial port, but nothing printed from the UART and simple AT command did nothing).

Looking for some fresh ideas.

Thanks in advance!

I did the same thing. @ensar fixed it here:
