how to rid off NO CARRIER problem with wvdial

kunalagon · 12-14-2006, 08:22 AM

I installed wvdial v1.56. And I installed modem driver for HSF Conexant. Driver forks fine and wvdial works almost fine. The problem is what should I add to wvdial.conf to avoid this:

Code:

NO CARRIER
--> No Carrier!  Trying again.

The whole output of wvdial is (when I start wvdial):

Code:

euforia sorg # wvdial
--> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.56 (root@euforia)
--> Initializing modem.
--> Sending: ATZ
ATZ
OK
--> Sending: AT S11=50
AT S11=50
OK
--> Modem initialized.
--> Idle Seconds = 1200, disabling automatic reconnect.
--> Sending: ATDT/
--> Waiting for carrier.
ATDT/
NO CARRIER
--> No Carrier!  Trying again.
--> Sending: ATDT/
--> Waiting for carrier.
ATDT/

This is my wvdial.conf :

Code:

              [Dialer Defaults]
              Modem = /dev/modem
              Baud = 57600
              Init = ATZ
              Init2 = AT S11=50
              Phone = /
              Username = apenwarr
              Password = my-password
              Stupid Mode = yes
              Carrier Check = no
              Idle Seconds = 1200
             # [Dialer phone2]
             #Phone = 555-4243

              [Dialer shh]
              Init3 = ATM0

            # [Dialer pulse]
            #  Dial Command = ATDP

As you can see there is no Phone string, just /. I put / because I dont want to call anybody. I just want modem pick up a telephone line, so I could record telephone calls.

Check your lines and make sure everything works right up to the modem. Do you hear the dialtone when the modem picks up? Check the modem settings and turn the volume up so you can hear the dialtone and the DTMF tones when the modem dials out.

Change vwdial.conf
Init2 = AT S11=50
to this:
Init2 = AT S11=50 M1
Or maybe M2
