Ok, then I think the first approach is practical

I am developing a FW that needs Cellular connection, but I would like to have an option to run/debug the FW without requiring a cellular connection.

Hi Adrian,

Based on your description, it seems you don’t need any communication with the external world. In that case, you can use the nRF91xx as a regular MCU without enabling the cellular connection.You can run many Zephyr samples, such as "Hello World," without issues since the cellular connection won’t be activated unless you explicitly initialize it in your firmware.

However, I find your mentioned approaches a bit confusing. It seems like you still require a network interface for data output. If that’s the case, you can simply print the data for now as your first approach mentioned and later replace the print statements with network send APIs when needed.

Best regards,
Charlie
