This post explains how to start using a mangOH Green board, and to connect it to Sierra Wireless AirVantage. Some knowledge of Linux OS is required.

mangOH, Legato and AirVantage documentation is good, so I won’t provide all details. My aim is more to provide a broad view, so that you know how to use the existing documentation. Continue reading “Starting with a mangOH Green board”

This article presents the steps I followed to upgrade the firmware of a Sierra Wireless WP8546 used in a mangOH Green board. Continue reading “Updating WP85xx firmware with mangOH Green”
