Can some genius out there please give directions on installing 4G modem on kali on the uConsole step by step? Mine shows up as /dev/ttyUSB5 and I have no idea what to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Never mind. It was already working.
I just had to go to console and enter
sudo su
apt-get install modemmanager
uconsole-4g-cm4 enable
systemctl restart ModemManager
Then next I just clicked on the wifi antenna signal in the bottom of kali and added a new cellular modem connection through the nice graphical interface. Works a treat!
Kali, I see. First, where did you acquire the image? I can’t vouch for Clockwork’s version, but I’m fairly positive @Rex built a more up-to-date image with the necessary script pre-installed. If not, here is a link for the steps I did to get mine working.
Take note, the instructions are for Alpine/postmarketOS, but the utilities/libraries you’re looking for are pinctrl
and libqmi
. As an update to that, the MEGA link should contain a packaged version of the script for Debian/Kali/Ubuntu.
What’s your experience in Linux, by the way? Are you sure you searched thoroughly before you asked here?
(Oof, I forgot to add ModemManager
. Super important, too. And I’m not sure if it comes pre-installed by default there.)
I said nevermind, i already solved it before you even typed all this.
