I am trying to dial out on my FreeBSD 2.2.1 system. But for some reason, my communications with my modem are messed up. The computer can talk to the modem just fine. For example, When I am in term mode in user PPP, I have to hit RETURN twice to get the result code to print to the screen. The display is always one character behind, as well. So if I type "ath", I can only see "at" until I hit return. Then I can see ath, but I have to hit return again to display the result code "ok". So it's like the computer is not echoing the character back to the display. (Local echo is on.) When I do connect, (using PPP term or seyon). I have to hit return to see what the other computer is sending to me. It doesn't just flow across the screen like it should. It comes in chunks (about 12 characters at a time) as I hit random characters to make it display. This is confirmed in the PPP log (See below). It sends AT expecting an OK in return. It gets nothing. It sends the atdt command, and in return it gets the OK it was expecting for the AT. When it connects, the script doesn't see anything, becuase it hasn't sent a character to make it see it. So it can't go on! I've tried fiddling with the CR/LF setup to no avail. Does this ring a bell with anyone?
