RG255C-GL GPS Coordinates

Kernel version: 6.1.111

I managed to update the firmware:

at+qgmr
RG255CGLABR01A08M4G_A0.001.A0.001

OK

4 USB interfaces showed up this time:

[   14.590728] option 1-1:1.0: GSM modem (1-port) converter detected
[   14.591000] usb 1-1: GSM modem (1-port) converter now attached to ttyUSB0
[   14.591124] option 1-1:1.1: GSM modem (1-port) converter detected
[   14.591296] usb 1-1: GSM modem (1-port) converter now attached to ttyUSB1
[   14.591393] option 1-1:1.2: GSM modem (1-port) converter detected
[   14.591509] usb 1-1: GSM modem (1-port) converter now attached to ttyUSB2
[   14.591590] option 1-1:1.3: GSM modem (1-port) converter detected
[   14.591708] usb 1-1: GSM modem (1-port) converter now attached to ttyUSB3

There were only 3 before.

I am still not getting any NMEA logs. Here is my sequence of commands to start the GPS:

at+qgpscfg="outport","usbnmea"
OK
at+qgps=1
OK

ttyUSB1 remains empty for a very long time:

But I am able to get GPS coordinates through AT commands:

at+qgpsloc=1
+QGPSLOC: <hidden>

OK

Is there any other configuration needed? Can you see your values for at+qgpscfg fields?

I have never seen it.
Or do you set it with the wrong baudrate?

AT+QGPSCFG=?

Currently, there is no archived guidance document for GNSS, but you can refer to documents from other modules.

OK

i’ll keep digging. it’s weird.

Just wondering, did you test on your side the mini PCIe module? The screenshots you provided above where NMEA logs work, were they captured from a mini PCIe module?

Thank you.

It shares with the same firmware. We are using the USB. It is the same.

It works! Very weird… I replaced the modem with another unit (identical to the first one - or so I thought, I ordered them together) and now it works.

Hello.
I have a Quectel RG255CGL00AB modem with RG255CGLABR01A04M4G_A0.004.A0.004 firmware and I want to enable GPS in a Mikrotik router with 7.18.2 MMIPS firmware. Do you have any advice for me?
