Package: ppp Version: 2.4.6-2 Severity: wishlist File: /etc/chatscripts/gprs
Please consider the following changes to this file:
1. instead of ATD#99*, please use ATD\U and then add "-U #99*" to
the /etc/ppp/peers/gprs file. Reason: some providers don't use
this standard dialing sequence.
2. instead of requiring the PIN to be specified in this file,
I suggest to say AT+CPIN="$SIMPIN" or so, then to invoke chat
like this: env SIMPIN=1234 chat -E …. Reason: the PIN is
a parameter that should at least not appear on the command
line.
3. Enable the AT+CPIN line, but ignore errors from it, or make it
conditional on the output of AT+CPIN? if possible.
These changes should allow the complete reuse of
/etc/chatscripts/gprs for all purposes.
