Each MMModem has a list of MMBearer objects that you can retrieve. But, more especifically, if you call Simple.Connect() you'll get the connected bearer object as return value: https://www.freedesktop.org/software/ModemManager/libmm-glib/1.6.0/MMModemSimple.html#mm-modem-simple-connect https://www.freedesktop.org/software/ModemManager/libmm-glib/1.6.0/MMModemSimple.html#mm-modem-simple-connect-finish This would be using libmm-glib directly from a C application. Of course you could do the same in a python or javascript program, as libmm-glib is GObject introspectable and it would be very easy to integrate, see e.g.: https://cgit.freedesktop.org/ModemManager/ModemManager/tree/examples/modem-watcher-javascript https://cgit.freedesktop.org/ModemManager/ModemManager/tree/examples/modem-watcher-python And also, another option, uglier maybe, is to run mmcli commands and parse mmcli text outputs, as done in the OpenWRT protocol handler (here you can see all 3 methods being handled) https://bitbucket.org/aleksander0m/modemmanager-openwrt/src/d694c4c6f92d870885e9f78c6a443d7f74c8254c/modemmanager/files/modemmanager.proto?at=master&fileviewer=file-view-default -- Aleksander https://aleksander.es _______________________________________________ ModemManager-devel mailing list ModemManager-devel@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/modemmanager-devel
