.
If you own a PBX with computer interface for the Internet, skip
to the section --> 'Note for PBX'.
Therefore, the modem configuration as described in the manual (chapter Configuration of wvdial) must be adjusted.
Do not use the automatic modem detection, which could be launched
System administration -> Network configuration -> Configure a PPP network -> Autodetect Modem
wvdialconf /etc/wvdial
.
- System administration ->
- Network configuration ->
- Configure a PPP network ->
- Configure the current profile ->
- Expert menu ->
- (Standard-Analog-Modem/non-ISDN) Modem Type (analog modem/ISDN)
and select your terminal adapter.
Then adjust the name of the serial device using the item
Serial Port:
.
All further configuration steps should be done as described in the manual.
If your terminal adapter is not included in the list,
enter the initstrings manually in the
Expert menu
.
For the first inittstring, the AT command that switches the
terminal adapter to the asynchronous PPP mode must embedded in the
following way:
AT&F<PPP-AT-command>
.
The second initstring is emtpy.
The <PPP-AT-command> is not standardized and depends on
the adapter type. Refer to the manual of the
terminal adapter. Often it can be found with the keyword
asyncPPP.
For example, the <PPP-AT-command> of the models
ELSA MicroLink ISDN-EU
and ELSA MicroLink
ISDN Internet
is
$IBP=HDLCP
. Therefore the first initstring is
Init String 1 (sent to modem first): "AT&F$IBP=HDLCP"Find a list of known initstrings below.
We would appreciate feedback about your initstring, if it is not listed below.
The same applies to the following USB terminal adapter
ELSA
AT&F\N10%P1
AT&F$IBP=HDLCP
