I have trouble communicating with HL7810 on my MacBook laptop.  
I just registered to Airvantage for first use.  
HL7810 didn’t respond after I sent AT+CREG=5(5 is the wrong parameter. my mistake).  
I did reconnect the cable to reboot, but not showing up in “/dev/tty.\*”.  
Could I H/W reset without AT communication?

how about connecting to Windows?  
Is there anything coming out in UART?

Is there anything coming out in UART?  
For comparison, do you have another working HL7810 to connect to linux and Windows?

I have two HL7810 devices.

1. ID of the working device.

> idVendor=1199, idProduct=c001, …

1. ID of the not working device.(doesn’t respond after I’ve sent the wrong command)

> idVendor=216f, idProduct=0051, …

I used the following method to download FW over USB in HL7800, not sure if you can recover your faulty module like this:

1. AT+SWITRACEMODE=RnD → this is important as by default, there is no CLI port (just for any accident, you can still use AT command via CLI port)
2. at+cfun=1,1
3. AT+KUSBCOMP=1,1,2,3
4. AT+CFUN=1,1
5. Assume USB port enumerated are COM97 99 107 where COM 107 is the USB AT port
6. double click the HL7800.4.4.13.0.exe
7. choose 2 → USB(YMODEM)
8. choose bootloader port COM96 (this might not be known at the first time running this program as when normal boot, you will not see this port)
9. choose port to download as USB AT port which is COM107
