- Hello all,
-
- I have USR Worldport Dual Standard 28.8 PCMCIA modem with country code
- Germany (16). As described in the German documentation that modem
- should be able to auto-answer (ATA command). Neither in the docs nor
- in a readme file I found any hint about (maybe country-specific)
- restrictions of this command.
-
- Whenever a ATA or ATH1 command is started the error OFF HOOK
- RESTRICTED appears. After switching to numeric output ATA shows the
- error code 54.
-
- S40.1 is somewhere documented as "disable ATA". But S40 is set to 0 as
- well as S53.
-
- I tried to find hints how to change the country code but without
- success.
- What am I missing ? Do I have any chance to teach the modem to
- auto-answer ?
-
- Roman,
