Sending SMS from LTE router was created by Andrew

By carefully studying the manual I have discovered that I can setup the SMS Gateway and send an SMS from the router's mobile number with the following URL.

https://IP_of_router/cgi-bin/sms_send?username=my_username&password=my_password&number=%2B44my_mobile&text=I%20am%20a%20test%201

Is there any documentation of the full SMS Gateway "API"?

This is good to know, thank you. DId you manage to find any further information on the "api".

I will be testing this with Home Assistant and I have found the "urlencode" filter can convert text in to a suitable format for your link.

I didn't really find any proper documentation to be honest.
