# OpenWrt ModemManager feed

## Description

This is an unofficial OpenWrt feed for libqmi, libmbim and ModemManager.

## Usage

This repository is intended to be layered on-top of an OpenWrt buildroot.
Install it in the following way:

1) Add additional dependencies (debian/ubuntu)

    apt-get install pkg-config automake autoconf intltool libtool gtk-doc-tools
    apt-get install libglib2.0-dev libgudev-1.0-dev

2) Edit your feeds.conf and add the configuration of the new feed:
    $ vim feeds.conf
        src-git mobile_broadband https://github.com/sfx2000/mobile-broadband-openwrt.git

3) Update the feed:
    $ ./scripts/feeds update mobile_broadband

4) Install all packages from the feed:
    $ ./scripts/feeds install -p mobile_broadband -a

5) Enable the packages in menuconfig:
    $ make menuconfig
        Libraries/libmbim
        Libraries/libqmi
        Network/modemmanager

6) Or compile the packages directly:
    $ make package/libmbim/{clean,compile,install}
    $ make package/libqmi/{clean,compile,install}
    $ make package/modemmanager/{clean,compile,install}
    $ make package/index

7) Once installed, you can configure the 2G/3G/4G modem connections directly in
   /etc/config/network as in the following example:
              
    config interface 'WWAN'
	    option proto 'modemmanager'
	    option device '/sys/devices/platform/ehci-platform/usb1/1-1'
	    option apn 'Broadband'
	    option metric '20'
