Problem with /dev/ttyUSB2

[adrianboimvaser]

I have ppp using /dev/ttyS0. Also trying to use /dev/ttyUSB2 for receiving SMS with smstools. When ppp0 connects I get this in dmesg and /dev/ttyUSB2 goes away:

[   40.330141] usb 1-1.3: USB disconnect, device number 3

This in turn causes errors in smstools like:

GSM1: write_to_modem: error 5: Input/output error

I suspect it's something about calling gpio -g write in the reconnect script.

I've tested swapping the devices and using smstools over /dev/ttyS0 and ppp over /dev/ttyUSB2 and apparently the problem doesn't happen.

Which module with Base HAT or HAT are you using? Did you try to troubleshoot following the troubleshoot guide?

[adrianboimvaser]

It's a custom HAT built by you based on the cellular IoT HAT I believe.
