5G (GSM module) for VenusOS

Hello,

I'm currently running an RPi 4b with Venus OS 2.93. Currently I'm using the SIM7600G Hat together with a Telekom Sim Card very well via LTE/4G. Because of the Telekom contract also includes 5G, I wondered if there is already some support for 5G in Venus OS?

There is already a SIM8200 hat for RPi, which supports 5G, even though it's quite expensive :-)

I thought about just buying it and give it a try, but I could imagine, that there has to be some updates of the 5G AT-commands.

Is there already something available or if not something in develop?

Thank you!

I am also looking for the same information. Have you found anything for the RPi 4b and the SIM3700?

Moved to modifications as it's an RPi question

Is it needed? The throughput isnt really useful to anything on a rPi or Venus OS in my opinion, sticking even to 2G would suit 99% of users.
