Try changing the 1st string to 'AT&F', and the 2nd string to just 'AT'. I doubt you'll need all those extra settings. Maybe those two simple init strings will work. If you're curious, the init strings are used to change various settings on the modem; e.g. ATS0=0 tells your modem never to automatically answer incoming calls. Windows has various modem profiles which contain all these AT commands, so it does it all for you. Having these specialised init strings are typically unnecessary, though. If you're lucky and your modem has a good manual, you can find a gigantic list of AT commands at the back of the manual. Otherwise, you'll be able to find one online. What type of modem do you have? > AT&F E0 V1S0=07C17D2S95=47W1 > > what to do. But why does the second one I put in work once, but not again? Good question (i.e. buggered if I know). One thing I can think of is that your data rate (e.g. 9600, 38400, 115200) is too high, and you were simply lucky that your modem succesfully received the command the first time. That's reallllly unlikely, though. The other thing is that 'W1' at the end of the AT command; that tells your modem to write all those AT settings to its memory. Perhaps your modem will not over-write settings; the first time you ran KInternet, your modem's memory wasn't used, so W1 worked. The second time you ran KInternet, your memory was already filled, and W1 failed. This is also pretty unlikely though; I've never seen a modem exhibit this behaviour. -- #ozone/algorithm <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - trust.in.love.to.save -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
