Re: Modem/PPP Problems



If you are seeing something like this:

Aug 12 21:03:05 owl pppd[982]: pppd 2.3.5 started by root, uid 0
Aug 12 21:03:05 owl pppd[982]: Using interface ppp0
Aug 12 21:03:05 owl pppd[982]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/ttyS1
Aug 12 21:03:09 owl pppd[982]: not replacing existing default route to sl0 [0.0.0.0]

And you want all of this:

Aug 12 21:03:03 owl chat[981]: send (^M)
Aug 12 21:03:03 owl chat[981]: expect (ogin:)
Aug 12 21:03:03 owl chat[981]:  48000/ARQ/V90/LAPM/V42BIS^M
Aug 12 21:03:05 owl chat[981]: ^M
Aug 12 21:03:05 owl chat[981]: ^M

(and more), you just need to include -v in your chat command.

If you already have that and you think it's the setup string, I have
found that AT&F1 is sufficient for every USR product I've tried. This
includes internal and external Sportsters and the external Courier I use now.
