Question

Hi,

running ver6 firmware, notice that gsmd dies, which causes gsmctl not to work.

Originally I thought it was a script I was running to read SMS via gsmctl, but I've disable my script and after about a couple of minutes, gsmd is no longer listed via "ps"

At the moment I've edited /etc/init.d/gsmd

changed this line "procd_set_param respawn"

to "procd_set_param respawn 3600 5 0"

Hello,

New firmware upgrade with this issue fixed is almost ready, but still being tested. If everything is fine we can expect it upcoming couple of weeks, but please do not take my words for granted, since if inconsistencies or other issues will be found it can be delayed, depending on how long it will take to fix.

Best regards,
