Hi all! few days ago I've bought a GPRSKIT from <http://www.acmesystems.it/?id=3> to create a prototype system. I think the foxboard is a quite good platform for build embedded devices without hard core knowledge of such systems.
I've started with newbie documents and successfully assembled the foxboard, foxgm and telit gm862-quad modem. The system is powered on with the working default configuration... every foxboard feature works as expected: networking, boa webserver, etc.. ... _BUT_ ... i cannot successfully use the telit modem :-/ . The modem is powered on with usual commands: # setbits -p b -b 7 -s 1 # (wait at least 1s) # setbits -p b -b 7 -s 0 the modem light L3 blink correctly: faster and than slower. I've then copied the scripts found in <http://www.acmesystems.it/?id=13>, and start testing pppd using the ppp-start script: # . /etc/ppp/ppp-start output found in /var/log/messages: Dec 21 17:00:15 axis-00408c169069 pppd[180]: pppd 2.4.2b3 started by root, uid 0 Dec 21 17:00:16 axis-00408c169069 chat[182]: timeout set to 60 seconds Dec 21 17:00:16 axis-00408c169069 chat[182]: abort on (BUSY) Dec 21 17:00:16 axis-00408c169069 chat[182]: abort on (ERROR) Dec 21 17:00:16 axis-00408c169069 chat[182]: abort on (NO CARRIER) Dec 21 17:00:16 axis-00408c169069 chat[182]: send (AT^M) Dec 21 17:00:16 axis-00408c169069 chat[182]: expect (OK) Dec 21 17:01:16 axis-00408c169069 chat[182]: alarm Dec 21 17:01:16 axis-00408c169069 chat[182]: Failed Dec 21 17:01:16 axis-00408c169069 pppd[180]: Connect script failed Dec 21 17:01:17 axis-00408c169069 pppd[180]: Exit. Any idea or suggestion? Any contribution is _very_, __very__ appreciated! Maurizio Branca
