Thank you for thinking like that. However, I'm just a Linux lover and
a Microsoft Surface user.

According to your guides, I did get some useful information from my
Surface Go 3 modem. Finally, it was based on a Qualcomm chip, and
other Microsoft mobile broadband modems should be based on the
Qualcomm chip. The test results on my Surface Go 3 are below.

Thank you for your help.
