Networking and servers • udhcpc & SixFab modem

I am following a tutorial on getting my cellular modem hat running on my Rasp Pi.

The tutorial is here : https://docs.sixfab.com/page/setting-up ... ing-libqmi and if I follow the tutorial it seems to work because on completion I can ping say ping -I wwan0 8.8.8.8 (where wwan0 is the cellular interface).

Great I thought, but there was one side effect - the last command I issue (when following the tutorial) kills my wireless lan connection to my Pi:

Code:

sudo udhcpc -q -f -i wwan0
I understand udhcpc is a light weight DHCP client.

So firstly not sure why I need it as I assume Rasp Pi already has a full fledged DHCP client (so what would the corresponding command be for the built in client?)

Is there a way to avoid killing my wireless lan connection?

Sorry if these are newbie questions - I just dont know enough about Rasp PI and DHCP yet.
