Great - I'm not sure how to log that myself, but an example I found on
the net looks like this:
'ABORT' 'BUSY'
'ABORT' 'ERROR'
'ABORT' 'NO CARRIER'
'ABORT' 'NO DIALTONE'
'ABORT' 'Invalid Login'
'ABORT' 'Login incorrect'
'' 'ATZ'
'OK' 'ATDT426-2468'
'CONNECT'
The only difference I see is that the 'CONNECT' is not supposed to have
anything after it, in fact taken directly from that same page:
"Here is the real Fine Print.... Make sure that there is no ''
(double single apostrophes) in the last line after 'CONNECTION'. There
must be NOTHING after the word 'CONNECTION'. If you use linuxconf or
control panel, these quotes will be automatically added."
Want to try taking out the extra stuff on the connect line and let me know?
Regards,
Ed.
