I just loaded the voxl-modem package to a raspberry pi 3 with a sixfab carrier/quectel EG25G modem with the same verizon sim and it connected.

Not sure if that helps but i feel like it is a step in the right direction.

Is there a way to flush the voxl-modem package from voxl2 and reinstall it?

[tom]

@JustinDev23 Well that's an entirely different set of hardware / modem so I'm not sure the two can really be compared.

I doubt you screwed up the package itself (quectel-CM is a standalone binary that is installed as part of the package) but if you really want to try that you can do dpkg -r voxl-modem and dpkg -i /data/voxl-suite-offline-packages/voxl-modem*.deb

[JustinDev23]

@tom is there a way to force this removal?

voxl2:/$ dpkg -r voxl-modem
dpkg: dependency problems prevent removal of voxl-modem:
voxl-suite depends on voxl-modem (>= 0.16.1).

dpkg: error processing package voxl-modem (--remove):
dependency problems - not removing
Errors were encountered while processing:
voxl-modem

[JustinDev23]

@tom i got it to remove with a force-all -r

[JustinDev23]

@tom this resolved the issue. i also used the newer voxl-modem 0.16.2

[tom]

@JustinDev23 So you are able to get a network connection going now?

[tom]

@JustinDev23 v0.16.2 had a ton of Quectel related updates so it would makes since that things are working better now (I had timelines screwed up in my head so thought those were in 0.16.1)

[JustinDev23]

good connection, tailscale is working, and all seems well on the benchtesting. thanks for the assist!

[tom]

@JustinDev23 Great! Thanks for your patience, I just generated an official release of v0.16.2 to ensure that it makes it into our next SDK release.
