Hello,
I need support! I am trying to establish an internect connection with the 4G Base HAT over PPP.
QMI worked without problems with this tutorial QMI Interface Internet Connection Setup Using Sixfab Shield/HAT
But I want to use the HAT without the USB cable so I am trying to set up PPP. First I am trying to set up PPP with the USB cable, then I want to switch the UART version. But I have already problems with the USB version.
This is the error when I run sudo pon
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo pon
/usr/sbin/pppd: The remote system (3gppp) is required to authenticate itself
/usr/sbin/pppd: but I couldn't find any suitable secret (password) for it to use to do so.
I would be very grateful for any help. All debug info is attached.
Best regards!
