This happened because the kernel was slow exposing the ports of the same device. We have some logic to "wait" for new port additions to happen since the last one we process. In this case we ended up splitting the ports in two blocks, one with only the QMI port (so no net port) and the other one with the AT ports and the net port. > The successful connections instead look like: > > -snip- > <info> [device HomeModem] creating modem with plugin 'quectel' and '6' ports > <info> [base-manager] modem for device 'HomeModem' successfully created > -snip- > > Any hints why this happens and howto prevent it?
