Newfangled Dialtone Problems
Finally got my modem (an old analog ISA modem--no PCI modem seems to work at
all) going again by disabling both on-board serial ports. So I am back to
where I was ... no dial tone.
The phone line is VOIP through an ADSL modem --> Audiocodes media server box.
The Audiocodes gives an ethernet to the computer NIC or router and two analog
phone lines which work with regular old fashioned telephones. I believe this
once worked OK. However, the phone/ADSL infrastructure has been changed from
wire to fiber-optics.
The telephones work fine. The xringd detects the phone line connected to the
modem ringing. The modem does not detect a dial tone and none is heard on its
speaker or earphones. Additionally, it seems to initialize "off the hook."
Minicom also shows the no dial tone error when trying to dial.
Any ideas?
