Hello,
 
 
I have a data capable mobile phone. It works just like a regular modem. The mobile used to have a serial port. I can open the serial port on Linux to read and write binary msg to it. I can also set it to data mode so that it works as a modem for ppp dial up. In data mode, I can send AT command to it and dial, etc.
 
Recently, the new mobile upgraded to USB port for higher data rate. The vendor  provided software only works on Windows 2000.
 
When I plug the mobile's USB cable into my Redhat 7.1 PC, I can see a new nubmer 017 under /proc/bus/usb/001. However, I don't know how to associate this device with a port in /dev/usb or just /dev/?
 
Also, if there is a /dev file associated with the new device 017, can I just open the dev file to read and write to it, eg, send an AT command to it? Or do I need any special device driver?
 
Thanks,
 
 
Simon Wu
