My plan was to "extend" existing simcom plugins to support 1-port mode. But
I don't know if this is a crazy idea or not.
Seems like MM is not very un-happy about the idea as (if you check the logs
I attached on the 1st post) it looks like is launching ppp after the set of
AT commands gets delivered while considering the modem a Generic GSM device.

Using the typical ppp + chat script I managed to connect and get an IP on
the ppp0 interface, is just I would like to do it using ModemManager.

Different problem I forgot to mention in my initial post is: The modem
requires to set a GPIO pin ON / OFF for a few seconds to be enabled: Is MM
providing any kind of hook to insert calls to user utilities before the
attempting the connection?

Anyway, thank you very much for your help :)
