Dear all,
I've just installed a new modem as I think my previous PPP setup
problems were at least partly caused by a faulty modem. New one is a
USR Sportster 56k flash external plugged onto /dev/cua1 (COM2) and seems
to behave fine under minicom (responds to commands, dials etc.).
However, when i try to use chat to talk to it using the following
/usr/sbin/chat -v \
TIMEOUT 3 \
ABORT '\nBUSY\r' \
ABORT '\nNO ANSWER\r' \
ABORT '\nRINGING\r\n\r\nRINGING\r' \
'' ATZ \
'OK-+++\c-OK' ATH0 \
TIMEOUT 60 \
OK ATZ \
OK 'AT&F' \
OK 'AT&C1' \
OK 'AT&D2E1' \
OK 'ATS11=70' \
OK 'ATS7=30' \
OK 'ATDT055' \
CONNECT ''
I get no response from the modem and the following in /var/log/messages
May 27 16:57:21 localhost chat[1008]: timeout set to 3 seconds
May 27 16:57:21 localhost chat[1008]: abort on (\nBUSY\r)
May 27 16:57:21 localhost chat[1008]: abort on (\nNO ANSWER\r)
May 27 16:57:21 localhost chat[1008]: abort on
(\nRINGING\r\n\r\nRINGING\r)
May 27 16:57:21 localhost chat[1008]: send (ATZ^M)
May 27 16:57:21 localhost chat[1008]: expect (OK)
May 27 16:57:24 localhost chat[1008]: alarm
May 27 16:57:24 localhost chat[1008]: send (+++)
May 27 16:57:24 localhost chat[1008]: expect (OK)
May 27 16:57:27 localhost chat[1008]: alarm
May 27 16:57:27 localhost chat[1008]: Failed
I have checked that /dev/modem is a link to /dev/cua1 but beyond that I
am confused.
Any enlightenment would be most welcome!
TIA
Paul
