ModemManager is falling to back to pppd instead of QMI

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • ModemManager doesn't detect the modem as QMI-capable and takes up pppd.
  • Unplug and plug the modem multiple times which will result in not detecting in QMI mode.

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux(RHEL) 7
  • ModemManager
  • Sierra WP760x Modem
  • QMI(raw_ip)
