Description

Testing ppp-modem on Simcom A7672 using the SIM7600 driver. Reset pulse of 200ms does not trigger reset of the modem.

A7672 datasheet says reset pulse should be 2.5secs, and in my testing anything under 2secs fails to reset.

Looking at other datasheets the pulse time for reset varies significantly across different simcom models, perhaps this value could be made configurable? If so can make a PR for this issue.

Sketch

from ppp library

    perimanSetPinBusExtraType(_pin_rst, "PPP_MODEM_RST");
    digitalWrite(_pin_rst, !_pin_rst_act_low);
    delay(200);
    digitalWrite(_pin_rst, _pin_rst_act_low);
    delay(100);


### Debug Message

```plain
[103772][E][PPP.cpp:311] begin(): Failed to wait for communication

Other Steps to Reproduce

any reset pulse under 2000ms will fail to reset device ending with the above debug message.
