RUT950 switch_sim endless loop

FW: RUT9_R_00.07.00.2
Modem FW: EC25ECGAR06A04M1G

I ran into problems with SMS utilities and went through almost all sms commands and run into seemingly endless loop issue with switch_sim in at least certain situation.

If the router doesn't have 2nd SIM installed (or there is a physical problem with SIM or something) and switch_sim-command is sent, router seems to get stuck in loop trying to switch to SIM that is not inserted:

and so on.. It doesn't accept any SMS commands anymore (probably because it is still processing switch_sim). After waiting 10 or so minutes I rebooted the router, which solves the issue. Any SMSs received after switch_sms are then processed after reboot.

There should probably be a timeout of some kind for switch_sim.

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback.
I was able to recreate same issue.
I will forward this information to our RnD department in order to solve this.

For now as permanent fix, please edit etc/config/sms_utils file, by adding these lines:
option value 'off'
option seconds '5'

Best regards,

Sigitas
