I fear that there is more to the problem than just that, because when an external modem - with no other changes made except the port - is used instead then the authentication works perfectly. I find this whole scenario totally baffling.
The main oddities I have noticed so far are:- The version numbers of the Windows software and the closed source object code module used by Linux are different. 8.30 and 8.31a respectively. Thus I am suspicious that there is something wrong with the 8.31a version. The version number incorporated in the path to the doc files is different from that of the modules as reported by the modinfo utility. The modem stores 'factory settings', yet I don't think the modem is reset to that in any of the initialisation strings we have suggested so far. Thus all our changes to init strings will be somewhat nebulous, because of the details the modem will have stored from previous testing efforts. ( AT&F - Use this as Init1 instead of ATZ ) -- CS
