I need a few of these for rpi's around the farm. Tired of dealing with LoRa.

Ah , interesting - hadn’t seen them like that before – but the premise looks the same to what I was suggesting.

In the video on the product you can see them mucking with AT commands. OpenWRT seems to be using https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/network/wan/wwan/modemmanager so I think you’d just want to confirm the chips on those dongles have had success with ModemManager - and then be running ModemManager from your Pis.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
