<div>This smells like rfkill driver issues. What do you get for 'rfkill<br></div>

<div>Cold boot and wam boot both seem to respond with the same results for rfkill list and do not seem to mention the WWAN card. Although it is interesting that the ID numbers(?) are different and the order has changed. Not sure if that is significant.<br></div>

<div>The other possibility is firmware incompatibility, if the device you<br></div>
<div>have requires loading firmware with gobi_loader. But that's only for<br></div>
<div>older non-LTE cards usually so I don't think this is too likely.<br></div>

<div>I think that the fact we can interrogate the modem means that firmware is in fact installed. We believe that it did require installation in Windows but that it remains in non-volatile memory. The Windows installer did have a long period of activity that looked like a firmware flash.<br></div>
