Reactor LTE problem - BMSimon - 27.05.2024

Hi guys
I received my LogicMachine5 Reactor LTE last Friday and I'm trying to get the LTE connection up and running before sending it out to our customer.
I followed the instruction you posted to another customer with a similar problem, and got these results:

Code:
* arg: 1
  * string: open port
* arg: 2
  * string: /dev/ttyUSB2


* string: AT&F
OK
+CPIN: SIM PIN
ATE1
OK
AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","internet"
ERROR
ATD*99***1#
ERROR
 
And ran the other script to check signal strength i assume?

Code:
* string: Signal: 29
* string: SIM: unknown
* string: Network: no info

Am I missing something?

Remove PIN code protection from the SIM card and try again.

Thank you, that worked

How do I configure ZeroTier without setting a Gateway IP?

RE: Reactor LTE problem - admin - 27.05.2024

ZeroTier needs internet access so it won't work without a gateway/DNS. When 3G/4G connection becomes active it will override the default gateway so all external traffic is routed via the mobile network.

Does that mean that I can't use ZeroTier?

I waited until I could see my 4G IP under 3G/4G settings, then I clicked on ZeroTier and it came with a red message that I need a Gateway IP before I can use ZeroTier!

It will work, but you need to set gateway and DNS in Ethernet settings. Otherwise you will get this error message.

Perfect, can I set my sim cards IP as gateway? and just use google as DNS?

RE: Reactor LTE problem - admin - 27.05.2024

Set proper gateway for the local network. You can use Google DNS.
When the mobile network is connected the default gateway will switch to the mobile network automatically.

You need to set gateway in Interface eth0 configuration. This won't affect 3G/4G connectivity.
