Modify RM520NGLAP to have USB

Hey, I’m still struggling with my RM520N-GL AP - it doesn’t show up on any computer. The only thing I can do is short the jumpers, which causes the QDL port to appear. The only software I can flash is the original Lenovo firmware. Then it resets and the modem isn’t visible again. Any ideas on how to enable Etch so I can use it with an adapter?

AT+QCFG=“data_interface”,0,0
AT+QETH=“eth_driver”,“r8125”,1
AT+QCFG=“pcie/mode”,1
AT+QCFG=“usbnet”,1
AT+CFUN=1,1

Such an interesting thing to change the card mode
