Hello everyone  
I have a problem with the Askey brand. I get the following error: “Connection request error: Parse Error: Invalid header value char.” I checked with the culr command and I can’t find the invalid char. I can provision it via inform, but not manually or by pressing the summon button. Any ideas?

> Please do not use this method. It puts unnecessary load on the server. The preferred mechanism is adding a new config entry with a key of cwmp.debug and a value of DeviceID.ID = "\<your-device-id\>"

The error is on the CPE side. You will need to look at the logs on the CPE.
