How to get the WP7607 device to work on Linux?

IoT Modules WP Series
1

Hi all,
I have some issues about development driver for WP7607 device on Linux, I hope get to a response for my problem.

  • My device supported for 6 interfaces (Modem, ECM,DIAG, NMEA,RMNET0 ), when I plugging device on Linux, Linux kernel was load 3 drivers (qmi_wwan, qcserial, cdc_ether) to manage for 6 interfaces.
    My question:
    1/ Do I need develop drivers for my device ?
    2/ if not needed , with 3 drivers above , Is it fully supported to use my device’s features?
    3/ How can I test the features the driver provides on Linux ?
    So my English writing ability is not good, I’m sorry for that!!
    Thank you for your answer!!!

You can use minicom to test the AT command port

So do I need to develop drivers for my device?

Do you think wp7606 device will work compatible with those drivers?

Can you compile the driver with your toolchain?

I apologize for my lack of understanding, because this is a completely new field for me, so currently I don’t know how to use the AT command to check.

There is a lot of tutorial in internet

Yes, my task is to develop drivers for WP7607, however when I plug it in there are already drivers available, can you give me some advice on what I should do next?

I’m sorry ,I think not yet, because I only received the WP7607 device from my superiors and file PDF has name : AirPrime WP76xx/WP77xx USB Driver Developer’s Guide, but document just mention to interfaces and endpoints of device.
