Folks,

Back in 2014 Nick asked [1] about support for QMI based LTE modems. It 
has been quiet on this topic since, assuming not a lot work has been 
done in this field.

Nowadays most LTE modules are QMI only. Only a small subset of modules 
is available using direct IP (DIP), yet the ones I tested are not 
reliable enough for production purposes. As such the 'CDC-WDM' path 
start to become more important to continue to have LTE support under 
FreeBSD.


Is somebody aware of current developments and/or interest in the area of 
CDC-WDM for FreeBSD?

Best regards,
-Rick
