Check with ifconfig: is there a ppp0 interface? It should have the IP assigned by the operator.
Donāt forget to use the test leds on the case. There are 2 leds dedicated to the 3g/gprs modem, instruction in the cover.

We have been looking at different ways to SSH into the Kerlink using a different port other than port 22 and although Dropbear is supposed to be able to listen on 10 ports the implementation is so stripped back it can only listen on one. If you are looking to change your SSH port you can change it in /etc/services :
[ā¦]
ftp 21/tcp
ssh new port/tcp
ssh new port/udp
telnet 23/tcp
[ā¦]
Thank you!
Good morning. How i can configure my Kerlink gateway on my own server host and port ?
Edit the local_conf.json config file and restart the packet forwarder.
Ok. I using the settings from the[ wiki:semtech [Wirnetā¢ Station]](Config to semtech demonstration) .
Edit the local_conf.json config file. But gps_pkt_fwd file in /mnt/fsuser-1/demo_gps_loramote/ didnāt started.
What iām doing wrong?
ERROR: global_conf.json is not a valid JSON file
Thank you very much! Itās was my mistake)
most likely youāre missing a comma somewhere 
yep 
Hi, Iāve been attempting to configure my Kerlink gateway to use the 3G modem, but I get no internet access.
According to the LEDs on the case, there is not a SIM error and the gateway is getting a strong signal.
I applied the patch provided in this FAQ, but there is still no internet connection, and the LEDs still indicate that I have a signal.
Is there any more information on this issue?
Check with ifconfig: is there a ppp0 interface? It should have the IP assigned by the operator like this:

No, there is no ppp0 interface when I check with ifconfig. Does this mean my APN settings are incorrect? Or is there something else complicating the issue?
Launch pppd by just typing it in the command line, then look again.
Still nothing, running pppd brings up a bunch of indiscernible nonsense, and ifconfig is identical.
See attached screenshot
Have a look in the logfile
cat /var/log/messages
What do you see?
Question: do you have sim-code enabled?
Yesterday I had a nice debug-session @Deloitte. Couple of things:
- Why is there a different software source in Kerlink Getting Started and my original settings page? I believe the iot.semtech.com one is even older than the one of Kerlink. There are wierd autostartscrips in it and I believe it also doesnāt send a status update. Can someone confirm this with me, or am I seeing ghosts. @maarts?
- Deloitte had a really unstable 3G connection. I believe this was also due to connection monitoring software which checked a 192.168.x.x address (obvious not there), and the packet forwarder did not keep up with the new network connection when 3G connection autostarts. Had to add
killall gps_pkt_fwdin/etc/init.d/gprs.
Will have to change wikiā¦
There is no SIM code enabled, I double checked using a home network 3G modem.
Checking the log files, I see this when running pppd:
daemon.notice pppd[1417]: pppd 2.4.5 started by root, uid 0
daemon.info pppd[1417]: Using interface ppp0
daemon.notice pppd[1417]: Connect: ppp0 <ā> /dev/pts/1
daemon.warn pppd[1417]: LCP: timeout sending Config-Requests
daemon.notice pppd[1417]: Connection terminated.
daemon.notice pppd[1417]: Modem hangup
daemon.info pppd[1417]: Exit.
What operator are you using? What APN did you set?
Please paste relevant parts of /etc/sysconfig/network
