Aleksander Morgado 2a31359c47 modemmanager: add support for wwan subsystem in hotplug
WWAN devices may now be exposed in the new 'wwan' subsystem in the
kernel (since 5.13), initially applicable to devices exposed in PCIe
(no USB), but at some point may also apply to USB devices that until
now were exposed via other subsystems (e.g. usbmisc, tty).

OpenWrt ModemManager

Description

Cellular modem control and connectivity

Optional libraries libmbim and libqmi are available. Your modem may require additional kernel modules and/or the usb-modeswitch package.

Usage

Once installed, you can configure the 2G/3G/4G modem connections directly in /etc/config/network as in the following example:

config interface 'broadband'
    option device      '/sys/devices/platform/soc/20980000.usb/usb1/1-1/1-1.2/1-1.2.1'
    option proto       'modemmanager'
    option apn         'ac.vodafone.es'
    option allowedauth 'pap chap'
    option username    'vodafone'
    option password    'vodafone'
    option pincode     '7423'
    option iptype      'ipv4'
    option lowpower    '1'
    option signalrate  '30'

Only 'device' and 'proto' are mandatory options, the remaining ones are all optional.

The 'allowedauth' option allows limiting the list of authentication protocols. It is given as a space-separated list of values, including any of the following: 'pap', 'chap', 'mschap', 'mschapv2' or 'eap'. It will default to allowing all protocols.

The 'iptype' option supports any of these values: 'ipv4', 'ipv6' or 'ipv4v6'. It will default to 'ipv4' if not given.

The 'signalrate' option set's the signal refresh rate (in seconds) for the device. You can call signal info with command: mmcli -m 0 --signal-get
