Re: [ILUG-BOM] installing modem

[rohitash panda]

Try using minicom to check whether the modem is working properly 
on Linux,that is if you are using a serial port modem.Just see 
that you are using the correct device file(e.g, ttyS0 ..) in your 
configuration file(e.g, wvdial.conf) and check the serial port(by 
an stty <device>).Also you can write to that port and see the 
modem lights blink or not(e.g, cat /etc/passwd > /dev/ttySx ).

hope this helps.
