HATs and other add-ons • Re: Issue with using GPS and LTE network with Sim7000X

I am attaching errors that I receive. For connecting to the network I am using a regular SIM card and used this guide to get the connection: https://github.com/noorkhokhar99/Sim700 ... /README.md

For getting GPS data I just use a simple Python script.

Regarding your provided article, I noticed that it talks about NBIoT sim cards required, as I have just a regular card, I might not be able to set it up, but I will still definitely try it out.

Here is the output of ifconfig for my mobile connection:

Code:

ppp0: flags=4305<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,NOARP,MULTICAST>  mtu 1500        inet 100.83.220.65  netmask 255.255.255.255  destination 10.64.64.64        ppp  txqueuelen 3  (Point-to-Point Protocol)        RX packets 4  bytes 52 (52.0 B)        RX errors 0  dropped 0  overruns 0  frame 0        TX packets 7  bytes 100 (100.0 B)        TX errors 0  dropped 0 overruns 0  carrier 0  collisions 0
Here is an error when running my script for getting GPS data:

Code:
