# LTE connection setup
7+
8+
!!! warning
9+
This manual is intended to be used with the modem we provide in retail as
10+
a part of the LTE kit. In case you use any other modem ePCIe card this
11+
might not apply.
12+
13+
## Prerequisties
14+
15+
### Support packages and drivers
16+
17+
For the modem to work, we first need to install drivers and utilities.
18+
19+
| Component | Description |
20+
|-----------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
21+
| kmod-usb-net-qmi-wwan | QMI WWAN driver for Qualcomm MSM based 3G and LTE modems. |
22+
| libqmi | Helper library talk to QMI enabled modems. Add qmi-utils for extra utilities. |
23+
| uqmi | Command line tool for controlling mobile broadband modems using the QMI-protocol. |
24+
25+
We can do it simply in CLI (via ssh) using the following commands:
26+
27+
```shell
28+
opkg update
29+
opkg install kmod-usb-net-qmi-wwan libqmi uqmi luci-proto-qmi
30+
```
31+
32+
## UCi setup
33+
34+
First we need to determine if the settings are on place.
35+
36+
```shell
37+
uci show network.LTE
38+
```
39+
40+
Standard settings (common for most configurations)
41+
42+
```shell
43+
network.LTE=interface
44+
network.LTE.pincode='0000'
45+
network.LTE.proto='qmi'
46+
network.LTE.device='/dev/cdc-wdm0'
47+
network.LTE.auth='none'
48+
network.LTE.apn='internet'
49+
network.LTE.pdptype='ipv4'
50+
```
51+
52+
The setting ``network.LTE.apn`` depends on your mobile network operator.
53+
54+
### Footnote
55+
56+
Some mobile operators require additional authentication setup with
57+
58+
- auth type (NONE/PAP/CHAP)
59+
- username
60+
- password

# Turris Omnia add-ons
6+
7+
Omnia is a very powerful device in and of itself. You may find the add-ons very
8+
useful when your network requirements are higher than what is in standard
9+
versions.
10+
11+
## Turris Omnia LTE kit
12+
13+
!!! info
14+
It is not yet possible to setup LTE in the reForis GUI, however you are
15+
able to use the below manual to set it up over ssh.
16+
17+
In order to use LTE, you need to equip your Omnia with an LTE modem.
18+
Turris Omnia LTE kit is based on the miniPCI card with modem chip Quectel EP06,
19+
so an LTE module category 6 optimized for M2M and IoT applications. It provides
20+
maximum of 300 Mb/s downlink and 50 Mb/s uplink speeds.
21+
22+

23+
24+
You will find the guide on how to setup the LTE connection
25+

33+
