I just got an EM7511 popped it in the We826 the Device info window shows a EM7565 is this just a bug?
It works ,, im using it to post this message, im just curious if its a bug or something? or did i accidentally get the wrong modem.
i can take it back apart but figured i ask about this first

That is rather strange. While I have never witnessed the modem being wrongly identified, the firmware on the EM75xx is buggy.

What does running the following AT Command return:

Code: Select all

ATI

Looks like you received an EM7565 as opposed to an EM7511.

I also checked the Serial number (which I removed the last few digits on your post) and it comes back as a EM7565.

Reach out to us on the store and we will exchange it out.
