Hi all,
I am now working on pppd rather than using "ifup" to dial to our customers
mainly to get diald working properly.
What I have noticed and this also happens on "ifup" is that when the chat
script runs and tries to do a ATZ, the modem doesn't respond and the dial up
eventually hangs up and trys again which then it initialises OK.
For some reason it doesn't respond the first time around and second time it
works. This takes about 2 minutes before it eventually tries to connect and
frustrates our programmers especially when the link drops out.
I am also running mgetty for dial in access and thought possibly this might
be causing it even though dial in works fine.
any ideas or is there a command I can use to initialise the modem on the
"pppd init script" to reset the modem?
thanks,
George Vieira
