Hi
I am trying to use my new 5G sim card with a Quectel 500q-gl modem on a Ubuntu 20.04 laptop but I am not getting connected to the mobile network and hence no IP address assigned to the wwan0 network interface.
The messages from running the quectel-CM executable are:
[01-16_14:28:02:291] Quectel_QConnectManager_Linux_V1.5

Querying the modem with AT commands :
ATI:
Quectel
RM500Q-GL
Revision: RM500QGLABR11A06M4G
OK
AT+QENG=“servingcell”:
+QENG: “servingcell”,“NOCONN”,“NR5G-SA”,“FDD”, 525,03,2C059CBB9,8,A029,431050,13
OK
Does the modem require manual AT configuration to get it to work with my mobile network? If so, can you point me in the right direction?
thanks
