K5150 is not a dial-up modm, it is a direct net connection device and after driver binding (cdc-mbim, cdc-wdm) will appear as a linux wwan device.
NetworkManager will see it and can use it for WAN connection.

Re: Huawei K5150 - /dev/ttyUSB missing

Post by joef » 24 Aug 2019, 21:44

Thank you !!!, that was the bit i was missing since it's a long time ago that i had setup USB modems and i was not aware about the new MBIM protocol yet.

For those one in the Forum who have similar issues, this is the very manual way how to setup the K5150 on my Raspberry:

Get the MBIM libs: apt-get install libmbim-utils

Setup the APN, in my case there was no PIN set - /etc/mbim-network.conf

Code: Select all

APN=web.vodafone.de
#APN_USER=
#APN_PASS=
#APN_AUTH=
#PROXY=yes
I've set the global cloudflare DNS, makes it easier to go on: /etc/resolv.conf

Code: Select all

nameserver 1.2.3.4
Then start the WWAN dialup:

Code: Select all

root@rb-test ~ # mbim-network /dev/cdc-wdm0 start
Loading profile at /etc/mbim-network.conf...
    APN: web.vodafone.de
    APN auth protocol: unset
    APN user: unset
    APN password: unset
    mbim-proxy: no
Querying subscriber ready status 'mbimcli -d /dev/cdc-wdm0 --query-subscriber-ready-status --no-close '...
[/dev/cdc-wdm0] Subscriber ready status retrieved: Ready state: 'initialized' Subscriber ID: '262022407XXXXXX' SIM ICCID: '8949202418510XXXXXX' Ready info: 'none' Telephone numbers: (1) '00172XXXXXX' [/dev/cdc-wdm0] Session not closed: TRID: '3'

Network started successfully
Saving state at /tmp/mbim-network-state-cdc-wdm0... (TRID: 7)

Get the IP address details - sample

Code: Select all

root@rb-test # mbimcli -d /dev/cdc-wdm0 -p --query-ip-configuration=0

[/dev/cdc-wdm0] IPv4 configuration available: 'address, gateway, dns, mtu'
     IP [0]: '100.116.241.74/30'
    Gateway: '100.116.241.73'
    DNS [0]: '139.7.30.126'
    DNS [1]: '139.7.30.125'
        MTU: '1500'

[/dev/cdc-wdm0] IPv6 configuration available: 'none'

Now adapt the above ip information to your adapter (wwan01)

Code: Select all

root@rb-test # ip link set dev wwan0 up
root@rb-test # ip addr add 100.116.241.74/30 dev wwan0
root@rb-test # ip route add default via 100.116.241.73 dev wwan0
Test:

Code: Select all

root@rb-test /etc # curl ipconfig.io
109.40.xxx.yyy
root@rb-test /etc # whois 109.40.xxx.yyy
.....
netname:        DE-D2VODAFONE
This is just the manual way, no scripts or tools involved yet but good to see how this can work.

Sometimes, additional drivers or firmware packages are needed for certain modems to work correctly. Check if there are any specific drivers required for the Huawei K5150 modem on Debian 10.
