I haven't gotten around to working on the mbim-network. But I have
what I use for the static configuration using mmcli. It's really
rough, but I've attached it.
Usage: ./modem.sh MODEM_NUMBER BEARER_NUMBER
Note: depends on iproute2 and ipcalc being installed. And currently
only works with ipv4
Also note: my wwan iface is hardcoded in this script, so you'll want
to change it to whatever your iface is.
