Hi,
I have a leased line connection using 2 US Robotics Sportster Flash
external modems. I'm using Slackware 3.6 (current) and the kernel 2.2.1.
The problem is that from time to time the modems just hangs and nothing's
happenning. The modems don't disconnect, they just sit there while
nothing's transferring on the line and I have to reset them manually. I
made this a little bit automatic using "lcp-echo-failure" but I guess that
the modems should detect carrier loss, right? For instance, if I manually
unplug the phone wire from modem, it doesn't detect that. Could anyone
tell me what's the solution to that? Could it be the fact the Sportster
doesn't support leased line mode? Some people told me that they don't
have any probs with similar hardware setup, so could it be something wrong
with my setup?
Thank you very much,
C.
My /etc/ppp/options looks like:
asyncmap 0x00000000 noproxyarp modem
crtscts
lock
nodetach
mru 1024
mtu 1024
bsdcomp 15,15
netmask 255.255.255.255
My /etc/ppp/options.ttyS1 file looks like:
38400
connect '/usr/sbin/chat -v ABORT "NO CARRIER" TIMEOUT 45 "" ATZ OK "AT&F1&C1&D2X1L0M1"
OK ATD CONNECT ""'
defaultroute
lcp-echo-failure 4
lcp-echo-interval 50
lcp-max-configure 30
I connect to the internet using "/usr/sbin/pppd /dev/ttyS1 persist &".
