      Hello, we purchased some standalone voxl2's + 5G modem carrier boards with quectel modems in the past. I forget exactly, but I believe we received these Quectels from Modalai when they were sold together on the website (i might be remembering incorrectly).
      More recently, we purchased the Starling 2 Max and the 5G modem boards (without a modem). We plan to use some Quectel RM502N-GL like we have in the past. Today, it was discovered that the old 5G carrier boards detect the quectel on lsusb, while the new ones do not at all. I narrowed it down to the new 5G modem carrier boards and even have the following photo showing resistors are different. Do you know if there is a compatibility change that wasn't made clear on the website?

        Hi @Sam-Kiley
        We do try to state on there directly the following:

        So yes, if you bought a 5G card from us in the past for Quectel, it was a different SKU, likely MDK-M0090-3-01-00, not the current offering for Sierra MDK-M0090-3-02-00

        We do not make the Quectel variants anymore since we source the Sierra's to be NDAA compliant.
