| Generic GSM Modem Sample |
| ######################## |
| |
| Overview |
| ******** |
| |
| The Zephyr GSM modem sample application allows user to have a connection |
| to GPRS network. The connection to GSM modem is done using |
| :ref:`PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) <ppp>`. |
| |
| The source code of this sample application can be found at: |
| :zephyr_file:`samples/net/gsm_modem`. |
| |
| Requirements |
| ************ |
| |
| - GSM modem card. The sample has been tested with SIMCOM SIM808 card. All |
| GSM modem cards should work as long as they support **AT+CGDCONT** command. |
| - Almost any Zephyr enabled board with sufficient resources can be used. |
| The sample has been tested with :ref:`reel_board`. |
| |
| Build and Running |
| ***************** |
| |
| If you are using an external modem like the SIMCOM card, then connect |
| the necessary pins like RX and TX from your Zephyr target board to the |
| modem card. Internal modems, like what is found in :ref:`particle_boron` |
| board, are not yet supported. |
