Hi!
I'm developing a ofono driver for a new Gemalto modem with 2G/3G/4G. It is a wwan device with 2 ethernet ports. I'm using ofono with connman as the network manager. Everything works fine, except a small detail, the ethernet device is treated exactly as a cable device. That means I can not set prio between my ethernet and my cellular. I google a lot and found out that the reason connman treats this device as a normal ethernet cable is that there is no DEVTYPE=wwan in /sys/class/net/<device>/uevent.
As I understand this, it is the kernel that sets this type? With the help of hints from the modem? If so, is it possible to hint this yourself using udev rules? Or this needs a kernel patch or a patch from Gemalto?
Below you can see the info from dmesg:
And here is some udev info:
