Reconnecting LTE after Disconnect

Hi Jared,

Brian (a.k.a. occurrentarts) has just rewritten the code to work with the 1.7.1 SDK and the latest MFW, which appears to be working well. Meanwhile, I’m having a problem applying the MFW firmware update and could use your assistance to figure it out.

Here’s what shows up in the terminal when I attempt to apply the update:

I don’t understand why I would need to get a programmer, given Brian was able to apply the firmware update without it – I’m just trying to follow the same process he’s already had success with.

Are you able to run at_client on that board? (And try again with AT commands?) The mfw_update firmware will not respond to AT commands.

jaredwolff If you hit AT and press enter, does it respond?

It responds to AT with OK.

jaredwolff Change your BAUD to 1M…

I thought it already was at 1M
