Hi all!
How can I test if chat and pppd can see the modem?
Minicom can initalizing the modem and the modem can compose the
telephone number I give it, but with pppd and chat I cant do this. I
have followed various standard procedures I find online, but them
don't work on my PC. It seems that chat can't see the modem because
goes in timeout.
Can anyone suggest me some preliminary test to configure modem, chat
and pppd, so that than I can finally connect to my ISP with pppd and
chat?
Thank you very much.
