Thanks Frank;
Agreed!
I was able to get that far.
The problem (after some more searching) seems to be:
after the set port, if I do
set carr off
c
I get the terminal screen with cursor.
If I type
at<cr>
nothing is echoed to the screen, cursor does not move.
if I type
at&f<cr>
nothing ie echoed
if I type
atdt<phone_number><cr>
blind - I can hear the modem dial and negotiate and connect, I can login
blind as confirmed by later connection with the old machine
Nothing is ever displayed on the terminal screen. There is a modem icon in
the task bar which shows bi-directional traffic.
If I force HyperTerm to a direct serial connection to the modem and type
at<cr>
It works as one would expect, as K95 does on the old machine.
type
at<cr>
and it echos
OK
I was suspicious of DTR but its value is unknown on both the working and
non-working machines.
One more piece of confusion.
I tried the old script with the changes you suggest above.
It dials, connects and the login prompt is displayed on the command screen.
It switches to terminal screen with the same login prompt and then nothing
echos.
More guidance please!!
