MC7710 and UMTS ?

[reiner otto]

YES,
this works:
 qmicli -d /dev/cdc-wdm0  --nas-set-system-selection-preference="umts|cdma-1x|gsm"


But, from a stupid users perspective, according to man-pages and qmicli -h, this should work:
--nas-set-system-selection-preference=[cdma-1x|cdma-1xevdo|gsm|umts|lte|td-scdma] 


Which is not according general syntax specs (as [ and | are treated differently), AND misses the leading/trainling " AND is a bit in contrast to the output of
root at voyage:/etc/qmi#  qmicli -d /dev/cdc-wdm0  --nas-get-system-selection-preference
[/dev/cdc-wdm0] Successfully got system selection preference
        Emergency mode: 'no'
        Mode preference: 'cdma-1x, gsm, umts'
Here are "," used for separation. Consistency preferred.
How about:

--nas-set-system-selection-preference="cdma-1x[,cdma-1xevdo][,gsm][,umts][,lte][,td-scdma]" 
Good docs avoid stupid question from users.



Also having UMTS working now, but speeds fluctuate a lot. I continue checking.

Have you tried --set-system-selection-preference="gsm|umts" ?
