    Cellular module turns itself on after sleep/resume or reboot


    I bought a cellular module for my laptop off ebay a few months ago, and it's been working great for a while. Last week, it started turning itself on after every power on. I tried updating the drivers to the ones posted on HP's site (instead of windows' Generic Mobile Broadband driver), it didn't work after that so I reverted it, but it still turns itself on after each resume. It's really getting on my nerves, because I don't need it when I'm inside a building with good wifi, and if I forget to manually shut it off it'll drain my battery and my data plan. Is this a known issue and how can I fix it?

    Hi, if you know an appropriate command to turn it off, you can schedule a task to run on resume (I have one so set but not for this purpose) to run a simple script to switch the device off.

    You might need a delay to get the timing right.
