The following instructions will help you prepare your Tektelic Azure gateway for use with a T-Mobile SIM card.

Step 1

-Ensure that the gateway is connected via ethernet (for a cellular/remote ethernet connection, use the internal command line tool to access the gateway, reach out to Jake Burhenn or Mo Bayaa for access)
-SSH into gateway using the gateway's local IP address:

root@IP_OF_GATEWAY

For example, if the gateway’s local IP is 192.168.2.100, you would type: root@192.168.2.100
Password: Serial number of the gateway, located on the bottom of the gateway

Step 2

Once SSH'd into the gateway, run the following commands to query the status of the gateway (queries the current BSP version, current firmware version, and current APN, current Chirpstack version, and current DPS version):

system_version
konaLTEmodem.py -c "at!gobiimpref?"
konaLTEmodem.py -c "AT+CGDCONT?"
/opt/chirpstack-gateway-bridge/chirpstack-gateway-bridge version
/opt/mydevices/dps-client -v

Step 3

If BSP version is 3.0.4 or higher, go to step 5, otherwise continue to step 4

Step 4

If BSP version is less than 3.0.4, run these commands (takes 20 minutes to update after the last command is issued):

rm /lib/firmware/*
mkdir /dev/fw304
cd /dev/fw304
curl https://myd-rnd-static.sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com/vendor/tektelic/ipk.tar.gz > /dev/fw304/ipk.tar.gz
tar -xf ipk.tar.gz
mv ipk /lib/firmware
rm ipk.tar.gz
mv network-monitor.conf /opt/network-monitor-db
mv interface_priority_file /opt/network-monitor-db
mv tektelic-lab-feed.conf /etc/opkg/
opkg update
tektelic-dist-upgrade -Duf

After 20 minutes, SSH back into the gateway and run the following command to confirm that the gateway is on BSP version 3.0.4:

system_version

Step 5

If the current firmware is listed as "Generic", run the following commands to remove any APNs, then skip to step 7, otherwise continue to step 6:

konaLTEmodem.py -c 'at+cgdcont=1'
tektelic_reset

Step 6

If the current firmware is not listed as "Generic", run these commands to download the Generic firmware files needed for compatibility with T-Mobile:
Command 1:

curl https://hwdartifacts.blob.core.windows.net/hwdassets/SWI9X30C_02.38.00.00_GENERIC_002.082_000.nvu > /dev/shm/SWI9X30C_02.38.00.00_GENERIC_002.082_000.nvu

Command 2:

curl https://hwdartifacts.blob.core.windows.net/hwdassets/SWI9X30C_02.38.00.00.cwe > /dev/shm/SWI9X30C_02.38.00.00.cwe

Command 3:

/opt/Sierra/LteModemFW/lte-fw-download-script.sh generic /dev/shm/

Installation will take approximately 6 or 7 minutes.

Step 7

If the current Chirpstack version listed is less than 3.13.3-r1, run the following commands, otherwise proceed to step 8:
Command 1:

curl https://hwdartifacts.blob.core.windows.net/hwdassets/chirpstack-gateway-bridge_3.13.3-r1_kona.ipk > /home/root/chirpstack-gateway-bridge_3.13.3-r1_kona.ipk

Command 2:

opkg install chirpstack-gateway-bridge_3.13.3-r1_kona.ipk

Step 8

If the current DPS version listed is less than 1.3.1-r0, run these commands, otherwise proceed to step 9:
Command 1:

curl https://hwdartifacts.blob.core.windows.net/hwdassets/dps-client_1.3.1-r0_kona.ipk > /home/root/dps-client_1.3.1-r0_kona.ipk

Command 2:

opkg install dps-client_1.3.1-r0_kona.ipk

Step 9

Wait 5 minutes, remove battery and power source, remove the old Sprint SIM card, insert the new T-Mobile SIM card, and reconnect the battery and power source.
