Apart from a few minor command differences, they both seem to expose a bug in our MUX driver which sometimes causes a crash (particularly in areas of poor cellular connectivity).

I won’t have time to look at it for a couple of weeks I think (trying to bring across all my old work on the plugin system first). I am really just trying to get the low level refactoring done at the moment (which is pretty much done now). The code is in simcom_7600.cpp, and is very small. I remember the big init command <font color="#000000" class=""><span style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0);" class=""> has some unrecognised stuff in it, but haven’t had time to remove/fix them yet:</span></font></div><div><br class=""></div></div><blockquote style="margin: 0 0 0 40px; border: none; padding: 0px;" class=""><div class=""><div>AT+CPIN?;+CREG=1;+CTZU=1;+CTZR=1;+CLIP=1;+CMGF=1;+CNMI=1,2,0,0,0;+CSDH=1;+CMEE=2;+CSQ;+AUTOCSQ=1,1;E0;S0=0</div></div></blockquote><div class=""><div><br class=""></div><div>The modem can now be put into ‘power modem devel’ mode, where you can simply ‘cellular tx AT…’ commands to it.

I dug out a pair of fasttech antennas and used the web page to cycle power on the modem. After this point the module was unable to identify the module. I tried rebooting and that didn't help.
