I have just taken over a project from a colleague so I am not 100% sure what this pi have been up to before.
Anyways, my task is to setup a Huawei LTE usb Stick (E3372) as a modem for the raspberry so that we can have internet access anywhere. I have tried to follow a few guide but still can't seem to get any internet connection. My best clue so far has been that there was something wrong with the routing but by chance I just tried to connect the usb stick to my pc and realized that I had two profiles to choose between: 3G or 4G and only 4g seems to give me a functional internet connection. So maybe the routing itself is not m problem but rather the profile.
So my question is: how do I do change this in Raspian (preferably from the console) and do i need to do this?
In many of the guides they refer to different dial up programs but I have jst assumed that i do not need that for this modem. Maybe i am wrong?
ifconfig gives:
