Hello, I am Electronic Engineer and have to explain my project first to let you better know, which solution I need... OK, I am accessing the Internet throzh GSM (GPRS, EDGE, UMTS and HSDPA) have now obver 20 differnet PCMCIA crds and 8 different USB modems here but they are ALL crap, even if the internet access is mostly working perfect. What I need is: 1) Access the Internet by choosing which protocol (CSD, HSCSD, GPRS, EDGE, UMTS or HSDPA) 2) sending and receiving SMS 3) phone calls. The problem is the 3), and so I have build my OWN hardware. I have bought a GSM chip from NXP, a Serial/USB converter chip, a USB-SoundChip and a 7 port USB 2.0 hub. Also I have a small I2C EEPROM conected to the Hub to let the host system know whats going on here... OK, now if I connect my Hardware to my ThinkPad 570, it is nicely detected and I get a /dev/ttyUSB0 and a /dev/dsp2. OK, using "ppp" I can configure the /dev/ttyUSB0 for internet access! Hey *, it is JUST working! :-) Now disconnecting, I can use AT-Commands to call a number and... I can phone over the newly added soundcard with someone. Using "smstools" I can receive and send SMS too. So, my selfmade hardware is working from scratch with Linux. ;-) And yes, if all is working fine, I will go into producion and sell it over my Web-Site/OnlineStore. Now I run into trouble, since the GSM-Chip allow PhoneCalls and Internet connections at once, but I do not know, HOW to send those AT commands. If I connect to the internet, I know, it is possibel to send AT commands inside a frame of a datastream, but how can I do this? It seems, I need a modified version of the "pppd" which then should support sending/receiving of raw SMS (encoding can be done be external programs) and of course PhoneCalls. So my idea is, to drop "pppd", "smstools" and "phone software" and build a GSM daemon which then can handel this stuff @once. Question: Is this possibel with Perl?
