11. 4G Module ¶

Check if the EC20 4G module kit has been loaded.

#The following 4 USB interfaces will appear after successful loading
ls /dev/ttyUSB*
/dev/ttyUSB0  /dev/ttyUSB1  /dev/ttyUSB2  /dev/ttyUSB3

If the load is not successful, check that the kernel has the following configuration turned on.

Symbol: USB_SERIAL_OPTION [=y]
Type  : tristate
Prompt: USB driver for GSM and CDMA modems
Location:
	-> Device Drivers
		-> USB support (USB_SUPPORT [=y]) 
			-> USB Serial Converter support (USB_SERIAL [=y]) 
Defined at drivers/usb/serial/Kconfig:558
Depends on: USB_SUPPORT [=y] && USB [=y] && USB_SERIAL [=y]
Selects: USB_SERIAL_WWAN [=y]

If the 4G module cannot be connected to the network, please check whether the following configuration is turned on in the kernel.

CONFIG_USB_USBNET
CONFIG_USB_NET_QMI_WWAN

Check whether the EC20 4G network card exists.

ifconfig wwan0

How to use EC20 4G module to access the Internet with a SIM card

# Download the ec20-armhf.tar.gz compressed package from the data download interface and copy it to the development board to decompress
# Need to replace the folder /ec20-armhf/usr/share/udhcpc/default.script with the system's /usr/share/udhcpc/default.script
