check this command options on the ATC guide.
As-is for sure it will return an error.
You need something like AT^SSRVSET="cursrvset", or AT^SSRVSET?, ... I
don't remember exactly.

Also, you can check the presence of /dev/cdc-wdm* and lsusb -t for
which drivers are used.

for the device naming, glad that you found by yourself, it has nothing
to do with MM, and in general doesn't matter, either.

Hi Giacinto.

I have resolve this issue thanks to your help 🙏

SerNum Parameter Description - USB Service Set Number
1 (D) CDC4 (USB4) enumerates as ECM devices. All USB devices of the UE enumerate with PID 0x0069.
11 CDC4 (USB4) enumerates as specific WWAN device. All USB devices of the UE enumerate with PID 0x006F.

Setting SetNum to 11 worked for me.
AT^SSRVSET="actSrvSet",11

USB driver is now qmi_wan instead of cdc_ether.
/dev/cdc-wdm0 is now present 🙂
ModemManger can detect the modem and I can connect to the Internet 🙂
