To another modem? Just kidding. 

Honestly, if you can't see it through minicom, there is no chance that kannel 
will see it. If you are getting no response from minicom, it could mean 2 
things:

1) You are talking to the wrong port. Check dmesg again. USB modems ussually 
map to more than one serial port. One of them might be the controller, which 
doesn't respond.
2) You are communicating at the wrong speed. Any time you type "AT" in minicom 
you should get "OK".

  Thanks Alan,
   
  Manufacturer sent me a PDF file for Siemens TC65. So the CGU-03 must be a 
clone of that. I've tried leaving modemtype as auto in my config and including 
modems.conf. 
   
  device opened
  speed set to 115200
  --> ^M
  --> AT^M
  --> AT^M
  --> AT^M
  closing device
  opening device
  ...
  and the speed just keeps decreasing
   
  i've tried setting the modem type to siemens_tc35 and siemens_m20 with the 
same result. I cannot open this modem using minicom, i don't receive any errors 
but i never receive a prompt or any responses to anything i type into minicom. 
   
  Where should i go from here?
   
  Thanks
  Zamil

  Hi Zamil,




  Well the good news is that you have a USB serial device. The next step I 
would take is to grab the GSM AT specs and try talking to it using minicom or 
similar. Alternatively just config kannel to use ttyUSB0 (using default init 
strings, etc) and see how you get on.




  Cheers,

  Alan

    Dear all,
     
    Need some help configuring my modem (found a modem lying in our warehouse - 
dusted it off and trying it out with Kannel)
     
    CGU-03 Terminal from Conel
     
    I have no other information on this modem. The website isn't very friendly 
either, can't find the init strings for this modem.
     
    When I plug it into my machine, dmesg returns usb 2-1 FTDI USB Serial 
Device converter now attached to ttyUSB0
     
    Where should I start debugging, anybody ever configured this modem??? 
     
    Please help, thanks in advance
    Zamil
