- you need to change this to AT&F!&D0 (D1 can't remember). This
- will make the modem set TR (DTR) high no matter if your computer
- is on.

- When I inspect my ppp.device I alway get 19200. The config is on
- 57600. Anybody know what to do?

-
- PPP works fine. Just instruct your modem not to hang up with
- AT&D0 (or D1???).

-
- Yes, startnet should do it. PPP.device will check for CD and
- not dial if it is high.
-
- hope this helps.
