Andres... the Palm talks to the Novatel Modem over the serial port.
Communication to the modem occurs using the AT command set which was
originaly defined for Hayes modems back around 1980. You open the serial
port, send the AT command, then wait for a response from the modem.
ATH is the hangup command. It looks like Novatel extended the command set
for their modem to take ATH4 as turn off power.
That's all.

Closing the network library does a nice job.
NetLibClose (reference, 1);
THAT'S RIGHT BUT IT DOESN'T TURN OFF THE MODEM, it only closes the NetLib

ATH4 should work, but you might also need to send an escape sequence
or simply disconnect PPP (you might need to reconnect first).
There were pointers to documentation on the Novatel modem on
Omnisky/Egroups including on how to make the notification (normally
the red light) cause a modem hotsync thus waking up the Palm. (its
the same as the pcmcia card and tries to act like a hayes compatible
standard telephone modem).
I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND THAT ANSWER, What do You mean with "ATH4"
I was looking for that information in Omnisky/Egroups and in www.escribe.com
WITHOUT any LUCK

would
be Ok.
