Hi, Can anyone please inform me as to how I may send specific commands to a modem. ? I have a script that switches my ppp dial up number depending on weather I am calling in the day time, or at night and weekends. However I would like to refine this further so that I can turn my modem speaker off during the night, and back on during the day. My modem uses M0 to turn off the speaker, so I have tried adding ATM0 into my chat script in various ways, i.e. set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \"\" AT OK-AT-OK ATE1Q0 OK \\ ATM0 OK \\dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT" or set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \"\" AT OK-AT-OK ATE1Q0 ATM0 OK \\dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT" but all this does is cause the script to hang, although at some point, I did get the speaker to turn off. If it cant be done through the chat script, is there some software that would allow me to communicate to the modem directly ( this would be nice to do anyhow ) ? Thanks in advance. -- - Tim Preece.
