Using MT1300 with QUECTEL EM160R-GL

Sorry, I am not sure how to use quotation on this forum, I dont see such option.

But can you just use Linux terminal?

Sure I can.

If you need to execute more than one command, you can write your own script to implement the
Sure I can do that too.

But then, what do I need GL GUI for?

I own 2 750 Slates / 1 Beryl / 1 Flint. Slates are running OpenWrt, I bought Beryl and Flint as OpenWrt compatible hardware (my fault, did not read through all documentation otherwise I would have known that that not 100% true, due to the lack of proper support of WiFi in OpenWrt) and was planning to run OpenWr or ROOter (if I use the router with a 4G external modem) . I should have returned both Beryl and Flint after I learned about incompatibility but it is too late to talk about it.

I will not compare right now GL GUI with ROOter/GoldenOrb or MOFI Web GUI but if you ever saw ROOter or MOFI “Modem Info” web page then you would agree that saying “if you want to see continuous reading of signal strength info you can use Linux terminal or write a script to output this info on the console” - would be ridiculous. I can do that but this is not how its done nowadays in modern firmware.

This is why I suggested to add (at least) a good all round terminal in GL GUI, since it is the simplest solution.

Anyway, as far as the detection of LTE modem installed in USB3.0 enclosure is concerned - the problem is solved, the ticket can be closed.
