Using the two examples on the wiki as guideline I am trying to use my RB411U and a Huawei 159 to make a AP / Internet connection.
Disabling serial0 I am able to get around the initial "port already in use" problem when executing "/system serial-terminal usb2 channel=0" command. I have set up the PPP interface using port USB2. In the log I can see that the process stalls by when trying to initialize the modem.
Disabling the ppp interface and using /system serial-terminal usb2 channel=0 I am also not able to get any response from the modem.
When using the modem directly on the PC it works fine. The sim card requires a pin. Could that be the problem? Or what could be the reason that I do not get any response from the modem?
Best regards, Pilgrim

works like a charm now. Seems that the problem was the sim pin lock. That apparently made the moden not repsond. Once disabled everthing everything started working.
