We need support from Quectel regarding CHAP authentication failures during the configuration of EG915UEU module.
Please see the attached image for your reference, in which the module will fail to connect and we can not get any IP address.
Hi, did you set the parameters with AT+QICSGP for CHAP. Are you even sure you need to authenticate to the other side?
Yes we tried setting the parameters in AT+QICSGP.I attached the logs.
Below are the logs for the same

Good bye
Did you add the username password here AT+QICSGP=1,1,“eapn1.net”,“username”,“password”,2 here or did you remove them because you do not want to show them?
Also did you check if the PDP context was activated with +QIACT ?
No, we cannot set a username or password here.
Do we need to set
If yes, then from where can we get these usernames and passwords?
from the SIM network service provider or somewhere else?
That depends and is the reason why I asked if you even need to authenticate. Maybe try without authentication once AT+QICSGP=1,1,“eapn1.net”,“”,“”,0. And yes these login data you would get from your provider if the APN you use is private. Why do you think you can’t set the username password there?
No, I am not saying we cannot set; we are able to set.
But the thing is, I don’t know from where we can get these usernames and passwords.
Have you already tried without authentication like I wrote in the last comment, or did that also not work?
Yes, we tried, but it won’t work.
Is it related to the firmware version that we are using? Will it affect
