Modem gets into a state where it thinks it's connected but isn't

Legato Application Framework

I ask for a data session. It connects, but then gives errors:

This is on AT&T, and doesn’t always happen, but when it does, you can’t tell it to restart the connection (well you can, but it thinks it’s already connected).

ping google.com
ping: bad address ‘google.com’

I haven’t seen this until R10.1.

Please see Network Connect Error - #4 by andcor. I believe that this might be a problem of the route having to be set.

Hi @andcor,
In my case, that wouldn’t help as the interface no longer has an IP address. But when I use cm data info, all the values are there. In other words, legato thinks it’s connected, but in Linux directly, there is no connection. rmnet_data0 doesn’t show.
Using ifup on rmnet_data0 sometimes will reconnect, but usually it only has a IPv6 address.

OK, in that case I don’t think I can help you. That issue I haven’t seen on my devices

I am getting this to happen:

What would cause it call TryStopDataSession()? It does actually connect, but then disconnects.

Also getting this:
Dec 18 18:48:28 | dcsDaemon[851]/dcsDaemon T=main | dcsServer.c SetRouteConfiguration() 1122 | Profile is not using IPv4 nor IPv6
Dec 18 18:48:28 | dcsDaemon[851]/dcsDaemon T=main | dcsServer.c SetDefaultRouteAndDns() 1296 | Failed to set configuration route

When it disconnects, it has a disconnect code of 45 and a reason of 1. What is that?

Hi,

Can you clarify which module you are testing this with.
is this seen everytime or in some scenario

WP7603, a T-Mobile (Generic) version. There WAS an issue with T-Mobile where they had marked the SIM as bad. But it was still connecting, and then disconnecting, but the Legato system thought it was still connected.

Hello @EvetsMostel,

Verified using W7607 with the latest release R13.1, We don’t see any such issue, As expected data connection works fine.

But, Yes In the past there was an issue of data connection dropping immediately because of some DNS configuration issue with some specific SIMs, But now the issue is fixed in legat-18.02.0 release.

Did you try with the latest release, Do you still the issue? Le us know.
