USB Dongle Cellular HalowLink1 & 2?

I’ve tried the tcl linkport ik511redcap USB 5G dongle (running openwrt) on the halowlink1 and it seems to not be supported.
Will it the halowlink2 support usb cellular connectivity?

Hi @morsemega

How are you connecting that dongle? The USB-C port isn’t a USB host but rather a client device acting as an Ethernet port. This is a hardware design so isn’t software configurable.

Unfortunately the HaLowLink2 won’t support USB devices either.

thanks @ajudge
Would the Seeed Studio Wi-Fi HaLow Mini PCIe Module on a Raspberry Pi with MorseMicro’s Openwrt work with USB 5G devices?

If your LTE dongle is just a router (as it sounds like), you should have no issues and we have support for this in our default configurations. If it’s not a router, but instead needs the LTE connection configured by the host, then as long as it’s supported by normal OpenWrt 23 you should be able to make it work.
