NCS / Zephyr example for bg95 with CONFIG_NET_SOCKETS_OFFLOAD

Hello,

Our product uses nrf52 and a quectel bg95 modem connected over the uart

We are evaluating the nrf connect sdk, we seek to have a working modem abstraction to send udp packets, get the time and receive the gnss position

There seems to be a complete lack of a *simple* example on how to open a socket / send a packet using the offloaded sockets in the bg95 (so without ppp), it's also unclear how the multiplexing between net and gnss works, and there's a lack of examples there too

most examples seems to be based on nrf91 but we don't have that

can anyone provide a snippet or some pointers?

  • apparently it's not possible, only ppp is supported with the new driver

    in the end we decided to do it from scratch using the modem driver and cmux, but the project is stalled for now

    > And why do you think that the bg9x driver is going to be deprecated?

    because someone said so in the zephyr discord, I'm fully aware that there is no mention of this anywhere else

    all the knowledge about zephyr is gated and unindexed in their discord, nothing is publicly documented on the web, nordic should pressure the zephyr project to move the public discussion outside a gated community, otherwise the developer experience will always be miserable
