hey there. ive got the vim4 running the most recent version of ubuntu
wondering if theres a way to turn on the mobile broadband from the command line. as of now i have to log in over remote desktop and click it on in the wifi settings
im thinking of doing an ubuntu server instillation in stead of ubuntu gnome but i still need access to the 4g chip and mobile broadband
You should be able to setup a command line connection through the nmtui utility.
this works great! exactly what i was looking for. any idea how to configure it to turn on when the system boots up?
Yes… in that entry there should have been a “[X] Automatically connect” section at the bottom. If that selected it should connect when the system boots as long as NetworkManager is properly starting all devices.
To turn on mobile broadband in Ubuntu from the command line, use nmcli connection up <connection-name> . Find the connection name using nmcli connection show . For Ubuntu Server, install a desktop environment or use a remote desktop connection.
