I have problem with this module using it in a Openwrt VM running on Proxmox. The module works at first boot, but if I turn off VM and restart, the module doesn't work. I get failed to power up MHI controller error -110, and I can't see the wwan0 port in /dev. If I turn off and restart again the VM ...

Do I need to write your script in .sh file or .pl file?


Yes, you have to put the script into the file you are referencing. local:snippets/hook.sh

Keep on hacking, you're getting close. Still though, seriously consider using this module in USB mode for your own sanity.


Tried again, but I ...

I've tried executing those command on proxmox via SSH, but I am getting Permission Denied. After obtaining permission with chmod, now I get write error: Input/output error


You don't execute the commands via ssh, you reference it in the vm.conf file. Additionally you need to determine your ...

I used to get that power-up issue on my VM too, I don't think that is necessarily directly tied to FCC Unlocking

I ended up writing a VM hook to power cycle and disconnect the modem when the VM powered up which took care of it but hell I might try USB mode anyway, that would solve some cabling ...

I have found online rev096 firmware by Lenovo and someone say that I can use Lenovo firmware on Dell, is it true? Does someone tried it?


I may be oversimplifying this, but the take I've got on this module is that it doesn't matter who oem'd yours, you can change customer mode and it'll become ...

I have a Dell T99W175 DW5930e with T99W175.F0.1.0.0.9.GC.004.065 firmware and I am using it in PCI mode.
With 065 firmware I found a bug: I am not able to see 4CA band (20+3+7+1) with AT^CA_INFO neither with AT^DEBUG. Only three of them are shown. Is it only a graphical issue or does the module not ...

FCC locked? Did you make sure to unlock? Pretty sure we've covered how to in this thread at some point. I know its in one of the T99W175 threads here on site. Check ModemManager FCC unlock procedure page for specifics. Anytime you see MHI power up failure its more than likely something to do with ...

Try this command: AT^PCIEMODE=0
Repower the router/modem and check if you're still getting an error.
If yes, then try the hardware mod.

I don't want to use it in USB mode, I want to use it in PCIe mode

I've received the module and I am trying to get it working in OpenWRT and debian. Right now both of them show this error in dmesg:
mhi-pci-generic 0000:06:10.0: MHI PCI device found: foxcom-sdx55
mhi-pci-generic 0000:06:10.0: BAR 0: assigned Imem 0xc1600000-0xc1600fff 64bit]
mhi-pci-generic 0000:06 ...

Many thanks, got it and will be investingating it :)


Try AT^PCIEMODE=0. Works without soldering on a different module of mine. It's mentioned by nok3 on 4pda. (I wasn't sure if it was fine to link so I didn't link it)


Hi, in which brand version of the module did you tried the AT^PCIEMODE=0 ...

I really should just pony up like PaddyX and build my own OpenWRT release and fixup the module but I'm really being lazy and idealistic and don't want to spend the time on it nor do I want to have an OpenWRT instance with kernel headers and gcc bloating it all up. Anyway, here's to hoping that ...

I found out 4pda figured out how to enable USB mode. You have to bridge the leftmost pads on the back. You might need to cover the pads for CONFIG_3 on certain adapters or boards but didn't have to on mine.
you also might want to switch it to the Thales MV31 customer id using AT^CUSTOMER=14. It's ...

First of all, thanks for your answer. I would like to ask a couple of questions:
1) I've found a cheaper DELL DW5930e Foxconn T99W175 X55. Is this working with OpenWRT or Linux?
2) Is your HP branded T99 not working with OpenWRT?
2) I would prefer to run the module in PCIe mode in order to get max ...

Hi, I’m interested in building a custom router with this cheap 5G module. I’ve found that right now this module cost about 60/70€. I read some posts, but I think things have changed through the years. How is the support in Linux right now? Do I need to patch the kernel and recompile it or is it ...
