Cat M1 / NB-IoT Modem NWK030 AT Commands (partial) (cont.) Establishes a peer-to-peer connection of the socket to the specified remote host on the given remote port, like the BSD connect routine. If the socket is a TCP socket, the command will perform the TCP negotiation (3-way handshake) to open a connection. If the socket is a UDP socket, this function will declare the remote host address and port for later use with other socket operations (e.g.
An application must be developed by you to interface with the modem and transfer data. NWK030 requires SIM cards specific to Cat M1 and NB-IoT networks. Standard 4G/LTE SIM cards, even the same form factor, may not function in this cellular modem.
