ronaldhernandezm commented 1 year ago

Hello, i was recently trying to use a miniPCI module: SIERRA MC7700 and a USB Dongle AWUS036ACS - ALFA I have the exampleimage 1.3.1 The problem with it is that even with an SIM card and the module connected the IOT detects it as USB : image And i cannot do nothing to use it ... , image image That is what i have right now...

In adittion , i have some weird issue when i try to install the drivers for the USB dongle , i receive a meesage that says that i have an wrong kernel header, but i was trying everything and nothing works :/ . Im using this to guide me: https://github.com/morrownr/8821au-20210708

I would really appreciate your help with this, thanks in advance!!

Look like our kernel config is missing CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_SIERRAWIRELESS. You could add that to recipes-kernel/linux/files/iot2050_defconfig_extra.cfg and rebuild your own image.

Hello , thanks for the prompt response That CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_SIERRAWIRELESS is a filé or a code line to write on that address? Sorry i am new on this

You will have to add a line with CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_SIERRAWIRELESS=m to that iot2050_defconfig_extra.cfg.
