In the past few months, I've had the OVMS drop it's cellular connection twice. It's status will still say "RegisteredHome", but no PPP session.
There are no issues with the SIM, and when manually connecting to the module through wifi and turning the modem off and on again using the buttons on the Status page, it immidiately reconnects and establishes a PPP session. But that doesn't happen automatically, which is an issue.
Doesn't the code have a watchdog of some kind to retry the PPP session on the cellular modem if that goes down for whatever reason? If not, might it be an idea to add that? Preferably with a configurable retry timer?
The code does have logic to retry the connection, but it seems that sometimes the low-level serial port has problems.
The EDGE firmware has changes to forcefully turn off and on the modem if it can't connect after some time. You can try that to see if it improves this for you.
Thanks! I'll hold off on edge for now for stability reasons and wait for that to get pushed to main. It happened twice in the last 6 months or so, so good chance that it won't happen again before then.
