routerOs 6.38.5 - pcie modem - step to send receive sms

[Ponyo]

Dear sirs,
I’m trying to send / receive sms with this config, but I think something is missing:

hw:

• RB953GS-5HnT
• pcie modem: WI-D15G2
• pcie modem: AUX 0168
• 1 sim (slot position should be the same?)

sw: router OS 6.38.5

I don’t understand if the modems are seen from the routerboard from the joint views.
In LTe page, I can’t change network mode from LTE to GSM, it reset the setting.

What means the gobi firmware error?

From tools > sms a timeout error appear when sending, no received message in inbox.

I’ve looked at wiki, but can’t figure out the exact sequence of steps that should be take to make a simple sms send/receive work so kindly ask your advice.

Thanks, BR

I tried this today and no lte device could send Sms but 3G devices that show as ppp could send or receive Sms provided the ppp interface was disabled. I think it is a limitation of LTE ? I even tried an sxt lte from

There is a setting under system ports to disable firmware. I tried this followed by a reboot but no joy on lte devices…

Thanks for reply, I can see the device on usb tab, but in sms setting can select only serial0, if enable ppp, opening Info view complain that

can’t reuse channel while ppp-client running! (6)

If the devices are show on USB, why should they use serial0?
The modem is in the supported device list, what can Ido to make it work? help please!

p.s. I need serial0 to communicate with third party device, this means that serial0 is used by the SIM???

Dear Sirs,
still trying to send sms without success, changed SIM, changed modem pci port, nothing seems to change.

If I set usb type not as minipicie the LTE interface disappear as the modem on the USB list.

If I try the LTE connection the log says online, but it is not, the lte info screen is attached.

the sms result is always a timeout, the lte scanner return error what’s the problem?
Help, please! thanks, BR

Hi,
I’ve tried also changing the antenna connection on the modem, no change in results.
What is causing the timeout error? It’s just an sms, I’ve inserted the sms center number, the serial get used by sms, then timeout error appear…
Can someone please help me?
Is there a “paid support” way to obtain some useful information to make it work?

Here I am, tried another modem, still can’t send or receive sms, looking to understand:

• checked the resources: USB2 is detected
• checked the signal strength: from ppp-client (is this the correct menu?)
  What’s wrong? Same SIM, same place, in a phone, the signal is good!
