5G Modem not working
-
Hello,
I am using a Starling V2 Max with voxl-suite 1.4.2 and a Qualcomm 5G module (pictured below). I have inserted a Mint Mobile SIM card and followed the configuration steps from ModalAI's documentation.
During setup, I selected:
1️⃣ V2 as the modem (option 1)
2️⃣ No Modallink (option 2)
3️⃣ T-Mobile APN: fast.t-mobile.com (since Mint uses T-Mobile's network) (option 4)However, the system fails to detect /dev/ttyUSB2, and running:
ls /dev | grep ttyUSB
returns nothing—indicating that no /dev/ttyUSB devices are available.
Any insights or troubleshooting suggestions would be appreciated.
Attached is a picture of the 5G modem for reference.

Thank you in advance

@tom Here is the output for lsbusb -t

And here the one for ifconfig

it says that the voxl-modem service is up and running but it is not connected to the internet
