I tried rebooting BG96 by AT+NRB at command but it's not working. What is the AT command for rebooting the BG96 board exactly?

    I vote to reopen because this question **IS NOT** about HW. The OP is asking for an AT command to obtain a specific result. Though it is something agnostic from the programming perspective, at-commands is a tag with more than a thousand questions, because it is a set of command that can be provided through a serial interface to a modem using whatever language you like on host side. – Roberto Caboni Nov 30 '20 at 09:10

Even though +NRB is the correct command for performing a reboot on modules such as BC95, it doesn't appear to be supported on BG96 modules.

According to BG96 AT commands guide, the reset can be performed by means of +CFUN command:

AT+CFUN=1,1

In fact, the syntax of the write command is

AT+CFUN=<fun>[,<rst>]

where the second parameter <rst> is described as follows:

<rst>:
0 - Do not reset the ME before setting it to functionalitylevel.This is the defaultsettingwhenis not given.
1 - Reset the ME. The device is fully functional after the reset. This value is available only for <fun>=1.

Please note how the described command doesn't work on BC95, where the following note is reported:

<rst> is not supported and will be ignored

I can assume that +NRB was supported just to provide for the limitations of +CFUN on that product.
