Determine USB tty's.
# ls /dev |grep -i ttyusb

ttyUSB2
ttyUSB3
ttyUSB4
ttyUSB0: MODEM port: simulated using USB, for AT command interaction and establishing data connection.
ttyUSB1: DIAG port: simulated using USB, for DIAG (diagnostic) command interaction (mainly used to debug modules at present).
ttyUSB2: PCUI port: simulated using USB, for AT command interaction only.
ttyUSB3: GPS NMEA port: simulated using USB, sending unsolicited indications for NMEA positioning data only.
ttyUSB4: GPS Control port: simulated using USB, for GPS AT command interaction only.
eth3: ECM port: for establishing communication connection.
Connect to the gsm module.
# minicom -s
Go to 'Serial port setup' →
Go back and then to 'Modem and dialing parameter setup'
Select 'Save setup as dfl'.
Select 'Exit'.
Check SIM.
AT+CREG?
+CME ERROR: SIM PIN required
If you see +CME ERROR: SIM failure check if the SIM card is inserted and the module is in mPCIe 2 slot.
enter SIM PIN.
AT+CPIN="1234"
OK
^SIMST: 1
^SRVST: 2
AT+CPIN?
+CPIN: READY
OK
Check status operator selection. In this case; 0=automatic, 0=long alfanumeric, string, 2=current.
AT+COPS?
+COPS: 0,0,"simyo",2
OK
Check network status. 0=report off, 1=registered
AT+CREG?
+CREG: 0,1
