I did it that way on purpose to make it clear when you send the command ATZ to expect OK. I never understood the why the expected response for the command on the previous line on the same line as the next command. I guess it was more clear back in the UUCP days when it was all on one line. Any way this is the standard way of doing it:
ABORT ERROR '' +++AT '' ATZ OK AT&F OK ATE0V1 OK AT OK ATS0=0 OK ATDT#777 CONNECT Some people seem confused on how these chat scripts work. You know this stuff, but for those that don't here are some basics. Chat scripts do 3 main things for all modems and service providers. 1. Get the modem's attention. 2. Initialize the modem. (Very important because the rest of the chat script depends on this.) 3. Dial a number. The obvious difference would be the dial number. The not so obvious would be what needs to go between step 2 and step 3. This is were the service provider settings need to go. Things like setting up Access points i.e. (AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","internet.com").
