Is there an application note regarding, how to set up a PPP connection over 3G network? I have very little networking knowledge and I am not sure what type of connection I establish with the following commands;
AT+CGDCONT=1,”IP”,”internet”,”0.0.0.0″,0,0
ATD*99#
Is it GPRS, is it UMTS? How do I know? Or is it even possible to make PPP connections for 3G or is it just limited to GPRS? We have a linux host machine and we want to make a 3G connection using the Linux stack.
Kind regards,
Mete
There is a lot of documentation regarding Linux, PPP and cellular modems, configuration is depending of your specific distribution. Regarding 2G/3G network selection this is a module side matter employing use of AT+WS46 command. Also Take care of the involved network APN it might be different for 2G and 3G although this is not common.
Hi Cosmin,
Thank you very much, I missed the document with the AT+WS46 command. Now I figured out what network I am connecting to.
