u3g.c patch
Probably good to add that I did not get the GPS detected (with the usbslcom driver) on FreeBSD (it works on Windows). If I ever do I'll be sure to create another ticket. This is the LTE modem part only. Please add support for Sierra EM7345 also (In reply to Aleks Michajlow from comment #3) If you can do a "usbconfig dump_device_desc" on a system that contains that card and post the output here (the part for the EM7345 only of course) I'll be more than happy to add it as well.

All I can find is it supports MBIM (which AFAIK FreeBSD doesn't support). This may be related to the fact that they're Intel chipsets as opposed to Qualcomm like the rest are. The patch I have here is for the (Qualcomm) X7 Snapdragon family, which I can test. Does the kernel recognize them if you add the product id yourself? If afterwards you have a serial port which you can commect to you should be good to go. In that case I'd say create a patch for them separately. I'm sorry I couldn't be of more help, I really would have loved for FreeBSD to support more devices. Created attachment 233741 [details]
patch against -CURRENT
Added an extra patch (both files combined) against -CURRENT just in case it makes merging easier
Quick bump, can this get some attention? It's just a bunch of USB id's. Hi, I'll have a look tomorrow. Thank you! Thanks!

Created attachment 233626 [details] usbdevs patch Adds support for USB devs: DELL DW5809 DELL DW5811 DELL DW5816 DELL DW5818 SIERRA EM7430 SIERRA EM7455 SIERRA EM7565 It's not the entire family, but it's all those that I could add using the USB id's found in the Dell driver packages and on various websites. Tested with the DW5811e (a EM7455 device). If anyone has a device not supported by these I'll be more than happy to send a patch as well. 2 patches are included (created against 13.0-RELEASE source, if they don't apply cleanly on -CURRENT I'll be more than happy to update them): - sys/dev/usb/usbdevs - sys/dev/usb/serial/u3g.c All patches are to be applied in the root of the src dir. Note that there is another bug (?id=234578) that adds a single device, but that has resulted in a lot of discussions and went nowhere. This bug supersedes that bug and adds everything needed to use the modems in all of its OEM variances.
