no carrier on linmodem
i am a nooB running SUSE 9.2 professional. Kernel 2.6.8-24.11. My modem was diagnosed with scan modem as an hsf modem and i have downloaded the hsf driver from linmodems.org. The laptop sees the modem, and dials out. But i wait a bit, and get a no carrier message and then it redials. This telephone line is fine on my mac however, so i know there is a carrier!
Where do i go from here to figure out why it doesn't connect? Thanx. J> |
Hi,
try adding the following in your /etc/wvdial.conf file: Carrier Check = no --cyberjun |
still no carrier
i had already tried this....thankyou...
Here is the error message window from kppp. SuSE Meta pppd (smpppd-ifcfg), Version 1.50 on linux.

Hi,
Give it a shot with wvdial if you haven't already. --cyberjun |
not surenot
not sure what you want me to do. I have poked around wdial...but i have no idea what else to do with it! *still a very newBEE i hate to admit!
thanx. |
Dunno if will work for ya but try adding 'Stupid Mode = Yes' Its not really the problem you seem to be having but have seen a thread where someone else got it to work by adding that. Are you connecting through a pabx or anything?

hmmmm
i run wvdial in the terminal and i get no carrier.
i run kppp from the panel and i get no carrier. i do have a couple of weird related observations. When i dialup from my mac, the modem will not dial out at all unless it has a dial tone. I find it odd that this modem automatically is dialing out without a dial tone. i have been troubleshooting this for a few weeks now, and i have sometimes attempted to dial in without the actual telephone cord plugged in, but yet the modem will dial out. Isn't that odd?> It is as tho it is dialing blind. If i do this on my macs, they will give me back a "no dial tone" message and not attempt to dial. When I plug in the phone cord, nothing changes at all. I get the same log from kppp, i get the same dialing every 300 seconds or so...(it will reattempt the dial since it doesn't connect). I wonder if the system is really communicating with the modem at all....? also. a question for my knowledge purposes only. i got a different init string from linuxant.org techs. I was instructed to change the wvdial.conf file. I did this successfully. and i used wvdial in a terminal and watched the messages as i dialed. It used my new config that i saved but also got no carrier. When i used kppp to dial, I noticed from the log that the changes I made in wvdial were not applied to kppp. Obviously these 2 are separate dialing programs ?? They don't communicate with each other? If this is true, where do i change the modem init string in kppp? I don't see anything in the GUI, is there terminal commands i have to do to achieve this change in kppp/> Thanx, without questions, how will i ever learn??????? (or get this freakin modem to work??!!!) J> |
