        @derrick0799 Can you disable the voxl-modem service from running with systemctl disable voxl-modem and reboot your voxl.

        Then run voxl-modem-start.sh manually so I can see the full output?

            @tom, sure. It will be later this evening before I am able to do so.

              @derrick0799 @vmassague Another thing for both of you to check is to see if the APN is indeed set correctly, you can do this with the following command:

              / # echo -ne "AT+CGDCONT?\r" | busybox microcom -t 1000 /dev/ttyUSB2
AT+CGDCONT?
+CGDCONT: 1,"IP","h2g2","0.0.0.0",0,0,0,0
+CGDCONT: 2,"IPV4V6","ims","0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0",0,0,0,0
+CGDCONT: 3,"IPV4V6","sos","0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0",0,0,0,1

              In this case, my APN is h2g2 for GoogleFi

                    @derrick0799 Do you have WiFi connected? If so, try disabling it with ifconfig wlan0 down and seeing if you can then ping.

                    Also, can I see the output of route -n?

                    Same for you @vmassague something to try.

                      @derrick0799 Looks like APN is setting correctly so that's good

                              @derrick0799 Is that the output after running voxl-modem-start.sh?

                                At that point, you should be seeing something similar to:

                                  @tom I think my problem was that the wifi was connected when I ran the voxl-modem-start.sh
                                  Now that I am connect with adb everything started working when I re-ran voxl-modem-start.sh. It is pinging as it should.
