- I'd like to be able to do this to!

- I've done this ppp.config now looks like this......
-
- serial.device 0 57600 0.0.0.0 7WIRE
- CD
- DIALSCRIPT=amiTCP:db/dialscript
-
- Is this correct?
-
- Problem I'm having is that I can't get the Modem to stay on line if my Amiga
- is reset. This is part of my dial-script. I've included AT&F1 (I think this
- is the command to get the modem to stay online).......
-
- #PPP device dialscript
- echo off
- #timeout ticks 500=10 secs
- timeout 3000
- redial "BUSY","NO CARRIER","NO ANSWER"
- redialdelay 250
- send "ATZ"
- wait "OK"
- send "AT&F1"
- wait "OK"
-
- Cut ------ The rest just dials the number and inserts the username and
- password.
-
- Is this correct. (I think probably not)
-
- Help apprecaited!!!
