wvdial and ultra 5?
I've moved my modem from an old P90 to an Ultra 5 running Potato.
The modem is an USR Courier v.Everything and has been quite stable and
reliable for years. On the Ultra 5, wvdial will only configure it for
19200:
chaos:~# wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf
Scanning your serial ports for a modem.
ttyS0<*1>: ATQ0 V1 E1 -- OK
ttyS0<*1>: ATQ0 V1 E1 Z -- OK

ttyS0<*1>: Max speed is 38400; using 19200 to be safe.
ttyS0<*1>: ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 S11=55 +FCLASS=0 -- OK
ttyS1<*1>: ATQ0 V1 E1 -- ATQ0 V1 E1 -- ATQ0 V1 E1 -- nothing.
Port Scan<*1>: S2 S3
Found a modem on /dev/ttyS0.
/etc/wvdial.conf<Warn>: Can't read config file /etc/wvdial.conf: No such file or directory
ttyS0<Info>: Speed 19200; init "ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 S11=55 +FCLASS=0"
If I change the port speed to 36400 in /etc/wvdial.conf, I can run at that
speed. If I change it to anything higher (I've tried 57600 and 115200),
wvdial won't talk to the modem:
chaos:~# wvdial
--> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.41
--> Initializing modem.
--> Sending: ATZ
|
--> Modem not responding.
The wvdial.conf I'm using is:
chaos:/etc# cat wvdial.conf
[Dialer Defaults]
Phone = *70,273-8111
Username = xxxxxxxxxx
Password = xxxxxxxxxx
New PPPD = yes
Modem = /dev/ttyS0
Baud = 36400
Init1 = ATZ
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 S11=55 +FCLASS=0
I pulled one of my old pre-wvidal /etc/ppp/options out of mothballs and
I was able to run with the port speed set to 115200. Is there a way to
get wvdial to run at a higher speed on this machine?
Thanks...
