************
How to build
************

In root dir:

* sh build.sh

In option directory:

* sh build.sh

****************
How to configure
****************

* In /etc/usb_modeswitch.d/04e8:689a, ensure this line is enabled:

  NoDriverLoading=1

There should be no rule for product="6889".

* Set up wwan0 as dhcp interface. E.g. in Debian/Ubuntu, add this line to "/etc/network/interfaces":

iface wwan0 inet dhcp

**************
How to connect
**************

* sudo modprobe option && sudo rmmod option (to get module deps)
* sudo insmod ./option/option.ko
* Connect modem
* Run connect_lte.sh

or:

* sudo modprobe usbnet
* sudo insmod ./kalmia.ko
* sh chat.sh
* Monitor connection using: "minicom -o -D /dev/ttyUSB0" (NB! this seems to be required, else the modem stops)
* sudo ifup wwan0

**************
How to reconnect
**************

* sudo ifdown wwan0
* Unplug and plug modem (bug in firmware, "ATE1" does not work. Same with windows driver).
* If /var/log/messages indicate error in driver, rmmod kalmia, then insmod again.
* sh chat.sh
* sudo ifup wwan0
