This means we neither want to activate the local SIM slot next to the modem, nor do we want to attach a remote card.
We could either implement something like a virtual bank with infinite number of simulated empty slots, or we could actually add this feature conceptually and on the protocol level.
The key issue here is that the map/unmap operation must no longer be coupled to the local/remsim operation.
#2 Updated by laforge about 1 year ago
In the ST2 firmware we already have a separate command. However, that will only work for QMOD and not OWHW, as the controls are wired up differently.
remsim-clkient currently always switches QMOD into remote mode on startup, which is suboptimal, too.
