Hi Bertrand,

Ok thanks for pointing this out.
We did not use the cage anymore, and simply moving the dongle around we are able to make it use UMTS or GPRS, since the UMTS signal is pretty low in this area.

This way we are able to test both scenarios, but still we observe the behavior that we reported in the previous email:

>> 1) Connect 3G key and wait for umts coverage (blue led)
>>
>> I activated the 3g connection, but ofono response is
>>
>> Error org.ofono.Error.NotImplemented: Implementation not provided
>>
>> I have tested the 3g connection on umts on windows and works connectly.
>>
>> 2) Connect 3G key and wait for gprs coverage (green led)
>>
>> I activated the 3g connection, but ofono response is
>>
>> Error org.ofono.Error.NotAttached: GPRS is not attached

and we are still not able to get it working..

Thanks,
Claudio
