First of all, to access a modem connected to an async or aux port of a router
it's possible by telneting the router on port 2000 + the line number the modem
is connected, if you perform a "show line" command on the router you'll get
something like this, for example:
Tty Typ Tx/Rx A Modem Roty AccO AccI Uses Noise Overruns Int
0 CTY - - - - - 0 0 0/0 -
1 AUX 0/0 - - - - - 0 0 0/0 -
* 2 VTY - - - - - 22 0 0/0 -
In this case, if the modem was connected to the AUX port you would telnet the
router on port 2001 and you can get direct access to modem control and be able
to perform any AT commands.
I also like minicom for direct serial access, but now for normal console I use
a nice graphical took named gtk term which is more simple and friendly if
you're in a GUI environment, for the command line and specific modem protocols
and commands support, minicom is still the one you want.
