Greetings. I am running a stripped down version of FreeBSD 4.11 on an embedded x86 board. I have an embedded cellular modem module (from MultiTech) that is attached to the serial port (going through the necessary RS232-TTL chip). I am using PPP to connect to the Internet through verizon. Everything works well until the connection gets interrupted. I am using ddial mode, so if the connection drops, it will redial. From the logs, I can see that PPP tries to redial, but after the initial connection, the modem does not respond to any at commands. If I power-cycle the modem, it will connect just fine the next time PPP tries to reconnect.
I realize that there is a good chance that the problem is in the modem. I am just wondering if there are any cases where you need a special chat script to handle disconnects to return the modem to a clean state. Also, if there is a better group for this, please let me know. Thanks. Jordon Hofer Dir.
