Hi!
I currently enter into the following problem: After powering up my linux box and logging in etc. it is not possible to connect "at once" to my ISP. Fireing up the pppd the first time after switching on the box means the modem goes on hook but does not dial. I can hear the "please dial"-tone :-) but nothing else. Killing chat and trying a second time succeeds. Cause my father is using the same modem on an Windows 98 computer and has not those problems, I think a PnP-sequence is missing at boot time. When booting WIndows 98 I cann see the computer talking to the modem (flickering LEDs).
I am willing to write such an init-program for at least my kind of modem, but I have no informations about PnP-talks via RS232.
Does anyone out there encountered the same problems? Does anyone out there has informations regarding a PnP-protocoll via RS232?
My soft-/hardware: Linux v2.2.5 (what else? :o) pppd 2.3.7 (same problems with 2.3.3!) US-Robotics Sportster Flash modem (upgraded via flash to be 56k-able, V90)
Any help is very appreciated Thank you very much in advance!
