Subject: [LIH] Problem dialing with a modem
> hi,
>
> I need help in using my modem.
> I have got a Laptop (Sony VAIO F250) brought from US.
> It has an internal modem as well as I have a PCMCIA modem.
>
> When I dial with the modem (PCMCIA, Cirrus logic), initially
> it used to give "NO DIALTONE". I read the modem manual and
> tried the ATX1 option using minicom, it says "NO CARRIER".
>
> I have also checked whether it is really dialing out. After I dial out
> if I check the tone on the phone line (by listening
> to the line from the other phone attached parallel to the
> modem) I see that I still have the dial tone and the modem
> hasn't dialed at all.
>
> Also to check that the there is really a carrier, I have
> dialed to my ISP from my phone and heard and confirmed that
> there is really a modem on the other side.
>
> For the record, it was being used in US and both
> modems were working fine there.
>
> I have already searched the linux-india mailing archives
> and haven't found this problem being addressed.
>
> If any of you have solved this problem please shed some light.
> If you have any other mailing list where my question is more
> suited, I would be glad to know.

> Thanks
