Many modems won't allow +GCAP before a PIN is entered, but will print out the +GCAP: ..... string in the ATI information. Not sure how the palm stuff treats PIN entry, but if it allows +GCAP before the thing is unlocked via the PIN, then that's fine. > I think it's questionable to rely on this at hard-coded driver level. > If the driver needs GCAP then it should use the defined mechanism, > i.e. AT+GCAP. Unless the modem doesn't allow certain commands until the PIN is entered, but we need to know that it's a GSM modem so that we can actually enter the PIN with AT+CPIN, which many CDMA modems don't use.
