Have you tried the command AT+COPS=1,0,“Reliance”,7 ?

[varun]

at+cops=1,0,“Reliance”,7

AT=COPS=1,0,“Reliance”,7

also i’m not able to put command “quit minicom”

@varun were you able to solve and get the RAK2013 up and running? Even I’m facing issues to configure and setup.

Please have a look at the section 6.4 of the following document:

Hello,
I’m facing some issues trying to connect to the Internet using the Rak2013.
OS Version : RAKWireless gateway RAK7243 version 2.9.2R

when i try use AT commands through minicom this is what i get

Can you help please

@aja
Try the following steps as follows:

1. Modify /etc/chatscripts/quectel-chat-connect to add a line to the file as shown below：
   
   
2. After changing the quectel-chat-connect file, do not use the gateway-config to set the APN name, otherwise the first step change will be invalid.
3. Set the LTE module to boot, then restart the gateway.
   
4. After the gateway restarts, wait 3-5 minutes, use the ifconfig command to see if ppp0 exists.
   
   

---

5. If ppp0 does not exist, use the gateway-config command to set the LTE module to disalbe and restart the gateway.
   
6. Use the "sudo pppd call gprs" command to manually dial and send the print to me.

Hello @ZhuQI ,
There is no file quectel-chat-connect in /etc/chatscripts.
this is what i found:

[ZhuQI]

Please use gateway-config to set the APN name first, then see if /etc/chatscripts/quectel-chat-connect exists.

[aja]

after adding AT+COPS=0, i tried sudo pppd call gprs and it worked fine, then i enabled LTE automatic Dial-up and it didn’t work , so i disabled and tried sudo pppd call gprs this is what i get.

i also trien enablign automatic dial up after adding AT+COPS=0 (the procedure you suggested), and it worked after the first reboot, the second reboot it stopped working it seems like it only works once .

[ZhuQI]

Still need to trouble you to make some changes.
Add the content shown in the screenshot to the file /etc/chatscripts/quectel-chat-connect, then execute sudo pppd call gprs and print all the prints to me.

[aja]

no trouble , here are the prints and the config i used:

@aja
I think it may be some hardware problem, you can contact the after-sales replacement for a new one.

Hi again,
i’ve received another Board, i managed to make it work with a RPI3 model B, however when i try to add the RAK2245 PI HAT i can’t get the RAK2013 to work. i think it might be due to the UART Port being used by RAK2245 pi hat, any thoughts on how to solve this ?

this is what i get when i run sudo pppd call gprs.

@aja
Can I remotely train you with a teamviewer?

Hi @aja,

I guess that you have bought a RAK2245 Pi HAT and a RAK2013 respectively, right?
If it is, i’m sorry to say that you can’t use them as this way becasue RAK2245 and RAK2013 both need UART but RPi has only one UART.
So there is only one case that you can use RPi+RAK2245 Pi HAT + RAK2013, yes, it is RAK7243 with LTE. In this product, RAK2245 Pi HAT’s GPS connects with RPi through I2C.

Ok thanks for the info.

I am having the same issue. It works once when I called “pppd call gprs” and thereafter does not ever work and I get a timeout. can we do a teamviewer to narrow down the issue? i have tried it with a t-mobile sim and a h2o sim and similar results. It worked once but thereafter

can we do a teamviewer to diagnose the issue?It works with a hologram sim but only worked once with an h2o and t-mobile sim

Hi i have bought RPi, rak2245 and rak2013 individually.
Can i make a LoRaGateway with this?
Is there some way to do this?
