Hi, first time user to this forum so I apologise if I format things incorrectly.
I recently ordered and received a Waveshare 8202G 5G HAT that I am intending to connect to my Raspberry Pi 4B. The Pi 4B is running Buster dated 4-4-2022, 32-bit. I believe I have connected the 5G HAT correctly to the Pi via the GPIO connector and via the USB-to-USB connector. If I connect the power supply that came with the 5G HAT to the 5G HAT then the PWR and NET lights come on, and the fan spins, however the Pi 4B does not boot up. I have already enabled the I2C and Serial Port too in the bios of the Pi. If I don’t connect power via the 5G HAT but instead connect my Pi power cord to the Pi 4B then the Pi 4B will boot up, however neither the 5G HAT PWR or NET lights come on and neither does the fan spin. I think this is an issue. I also have a separate Pi 4B configured with the Waveshare 7600 4G HAT and this works fine ie. power to the Pi and the lights PWR and NET lights come on on the 4G HAT. Thus - my question is should I be seeing the PWR and NET lights come on on the 5G HAT when I use power to the Pi 4B ?
The second issue is when I try and setup the software for the 5G HAT as per the instructions on the Wavesare wiki link, the setup is failing. The wiki link suggests you need to enter the following commands in a terminal window:
sudo apt-get install p7zip-full
wget https://www.waveshare.com/w/upload/f/fb/SIM8200-M2_5G_HAT_code.7z
7z x SIM8200-M2_5G_HAT_code.7z
sudo chmod 777 -R SIM8200-M2_5G_HAT_code
cd SIM8200-M2_5G_HAT_code
sudo ./install.sh
When I enter the 4th command above, ie. :
sudo chmod 777 -R SIM8200-M2_5G_HAT_code
i get a response back on the command line saying
chmod: cannot access 'SIM8200-M2_5G_HAT_code': No such file or directory
And as a consequence no other commands after this are valid.
Again, just for clarity, my thinking is if I can get the software/code installed then maybe this might cause the 5G HAT to kick into life (am secretly hoping), if not then the conclusion i am coming to is the 5G HAT must be faulty.
Ideally I need to get this working as it was supposed to be part of a demo i am doing in 3 weeks at an industry event with thousands of people… Help!
