    I have a voxl flight running a microhard modem. I have gone through the steps from https://docs.modalai.com/microhard-add-on-manual/ to setup the modem. I folowed the steps with the pictures attached. The microhards are both talking as seen on the microhard web interface, however the modem does not say it is running and I do not see the ip interface on the voxl. Thank you for any support.

      @Brandon-Wightman voxl-modem doesn't need to be "running" as it just runs at boot and exits after setup but it is abnormal that there is no network interface enumerating.

      What do you see with systemctl status voxl-modem? and what SDK version are you running on your voxl-flight (voxl-version)?

          @Brandon-Wightman Ah that's a really old SDK release at this point, I'd recommend to updating to the latest (SDk 0.9.5)
