Hello everyone,

For once I have a solution rather than a problem.

I know that a number of us European Duo users have had trouble getting the
internal Express Modem to work with Open Transport and various flavours of
PPP. I have just got it working with FreePPP and thought some of you might
like to know the settings I used.

This is the setup:

Duo 230 with internal Express Modem and GB DAA.
British System 7.5.3
British Express Modem & Fax software version 1.5.4
Open Transport 1.1
FreePPP 2.6.2

The Express Modem control panel is set to "Use External Modem" (the default
I believe)
In FreePPP Setup I have created a new modem configuration called "Express
Modem" which I have configured as follows:
Connected to: Internal Modem
Port Speed: 57600 bps
Flow Control: CTS & RTS (DTR)
Dial Type: Tone
Speaker enabled: No
Hangup on disconnect: Yes
Performa internal modem: No
Long re-dial delay: No
Fast modem initialization: No
Modem init string settings:
        Use: ATD&FM0

It seems to be the initialisation string that is the key to all of this and
this could probably be reduced to ATD&F (ATtention, Dial using default
Factory profile). The M0 simply disables the speaker, omitting this is the
same as M1 (defualt) which turns on the speaker until carrier is
established.

So far I have been able to surf the web using iCAB 1.9 for over an hour
without a drop out.

Hope this is helpful to some of you,

Michael
