That's not much of an init string. That's more of a "return all settings to factory default" string. As I'm a big fan of external modems, I'm not sure how you'd communicate with the modem directly. My guess would be the same as any other-- just open a terminal application and connect to the serial port it's assigned to and away you go. If you need a list of common AT commands, drop me an email and I'll send you a list I have. The commands may vary a little from brand to brand, but it's a good base to start with. -Otter > -----Original Message----- > From: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG > [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of Dan Mahoney, > System Admin > Sent: Sunday, March 04, 2001 3:19 AM > To: questions@freebsd.org > Subject: modem troubles > > > Hey all, I'm using an A/OPEN FM56-RS Fax Modem.
