Modem configurationForum: Networking Topic: Modem configuration started by: nu2dsl Posted by nu2dsl on May 26 2006,19:35
I have not been able to configure the modem to work with DSL. I followed the pppconfig script and selected, or typed the following;create...provider dynamic CHAT login info xxxxxxxx@xxx.net password info xxxxxxxx user name xxxxxx password xxxxxx dial number xxxxxxxxxx 115200 tone dial detect modem - not detected (no problem, the other linuxes did not detect) manual select ttyS0 (where my external serial modem is connected) finished, saving changes Then using pppdial Expect (connect) ^M ATDT replace_with_number connect ---got it send Expect (login; ) 115200 ^M No carrier failed connect script failed exit There is dialtone and the modem is dialing, but the connection is not being made. I have been able to connect with other Linux systems using CHAT protocol and with Win98SE using dial-up networking. So the hardware is fine. And it is a hardware serial modem.

Try PAP

Sorry, I forgot to mention, I tried PAP also. It did notwork. I tried various combinations of CHAT, PAP, static and dynamic and still could not get it to work. I have used other configuration tools for dial-up with Linux that seemed easier than pppconfig. It could be I am not familiar with it, but I cannot get it to work. By the way, these were with well known and less well known Linux systems.

Hit post too soon. Maybe I am not familiar with pppconfig or I am doing something wrong, but I have been able to configure dial-up on Linux systems before and on systems that need a lot of manual scripting and driver installation, such as DOS. So, I should be able to get this to work, just need some help to get started in the right direction.

Have you tried the command sudo pon in bash terminal?
