RM551E-GL Openwrt #7

Open SpeedxThunder001 opened 1 month ago

SpeedxThunder001 commented 1 month ago

Is there any guide to make RM551E-GL to work with openwrt or GL.inet Flint 2 MT-6000 specifically?

iamromulan commented 1 month ago

Over Ethernet or ECM:

AT+QMAP="mpdn_rule",0,1,0,0,1

Connection seems the most stable with that rule set.

i am using m.2 ro usb adapter

SpeedxThunder001 commented 1 month ago

the thing is in mt6000 when its detected as mbim/qcm it provides all the options and config on the router itself but in ecm mode i am only able to use it as tethering mode and everything is handled by the module so i am not able to view and info or change and settings

I haven't tried to use it in modes other than ECM yet but I'll give that a try when I get home later.

You can install a management interface on the modem itself as the modem does run OpenWRT.

You'll be able to access it through the gateway address.

does the inbuilt openwrt also work in rndis mode in windows?

iamromulan commented 1 month ago

ECM and RNDIS should be super similar behavior. Yep 👍

SpeedxThunder001 commented 1 month ago

but windows doesnt recognise the drivers even after installing everything when in rndis mode

do you have any idea about that?

Got access to OpenWRT using your excellent youtube video. I Installed Tailscale on it too and could get access to OpenWRT web gui from some random pc with tailscale installed and authenticated. However, the Terminal errors out when connected through tailscale.

I don't use RNDIS mode on windows.

I use ECM on windows.

Install the NDIS driver and ECM driver from this repo or QuecDeploy only. Uninstall all other Quectel drivers.

Once done make sure the modem is in usbnet 1 and go to device manager. Right click on the ECM device with the missing driver and click update driver. Choose from list. Network Adapters, Quectel, ECM adapter.

Has to do with the ttyd settings on what interface it will listen for requests on.

When you go to terminal in Luci go to config and change the interface to unspecified or tailscale to get it to work over tailscale.

Just did. Thanks. Is it possible to add both LAN and Tailscale interfaces? I Added 2nd ttyd instance but only 1st instance works and I can only get either LAN or Tailscale to work. Not both together.
