i am unable to found the exact problem. Can you please tell me the why always the connection is not happening with MQTT client.

SATEESH_BABU_GORUMUC · June 22, 2022, 6:24am

I tried with public MQTT broker. The connection is established and subscribe the topic and publish the data also working fine.
At the time of using AWS server the MQTT client is not Connected.
Is there any firmware upgrade is needed.If you have updated firmware files Please share.

Thanks

I’m facing the same issue with BG96 whose firmware is “Revision: BG96MAR03A09M1G”.

Also, I read the document “BG96_MQTT_Attach_AWS_IoTCore_Application_Note.pdf” and modified my AT-command-sequence but I got the error.

Naoto.F · October 23, 2022, 4:05pm

I solved my connection problem.
What I did was send “AT+QPRTPARA=3” to BG96 to restore the factory settings.

cf. BG96: AT command to reset non-volatile settings to default?

@herbert.pan-Q
I have same issue with EC20 GSM module. I am unable to connect to AWS IOT CORE. EC20 GSM Firmware version is EC20CEFILGR06A05M1G. Is this version supports AWS ??

Thanks in advance for you your support!

herbert.pan-Q · November 5, 2022, 1:13am

Are you trying to connect to AWS using 4G network ?

Sana_Shaikh · November 5, 2022, 5:58am

@herbert.pan-Q
Yes .I am using EC20 GSM module.

herbert.pan-Q · November 5, 2022, 6:00am

Is the current module registration network successful? Did you add SNI?

Sana_Shaikh · November 19, 2022, 5:59am

@herbert.pan-Q
Yes, registration network successful. How to add SNI & where is to be added?

herbert.pan-Q · November 19, 2022, 6:54am

Sana_Shaikh · November 19, 2022, 4:05pm

@herbert.pan-Q
Thank you for your response!
I will add & test it .Will let you know.

Sana_Shaikh · November 21, 2022, 9:54am

@herbert.pan-Q
I added SNI command. But still I am not able to connect to AWS IOT Core MQTT server. Connection opened successfully but client not connecting to server and received response as +QMTSTAT: 0,1.

herbert.pan-Q · November 22, 2022, 1:11am

I suggest that you first use mqtt.fx tool for verification, preliminary judgment may be caused by CA authentication failure

Sana_Shaikh · November 22, 2022, 5:59am

@herbert.pan-Q
Thank you so much for your response & help. Now I am able to connect to AWS IOT Core server. Also I am able to configure last will for IOT device without SSL ,now I have to do same with SSL. How to do that ?Any suggestion will be very helpful.

herbert.pan-Q · November 23, 2022, 1:23am

Sana_Shaikh · November 23, 2022, 4:16am

@herbert.pan-Q
Yes, I used above AT command for configuring last will .But this is working for without SSL. I want to configure same for AWS IOT Core (i.e. using SSL commands).I configured last will with SSL commands ,but I am unable to connect to AWS IOT core.
