🧵1/X Unboxing the #MSM8916 based M9S-E LCD Modem WiFi ("5G", but not really)
After the huge success of Debian on the #OpenStick LTE USB dongle three years ago, I wondered if you can still get MSM8916-based LTE routers to run Debian on. The search results on AliExpress piqued me: there is a new 17€ device with a color LCD screen!
Fast forward two weeks, it's here. Fasten your seatbelts to see how it works (and how it doesn't).
