Ok After trying many things I hope someone can help.




OS: freeBSD 4.5
Kernel: GENERIC
modem1: Motorola VoiceSURFR 56K Modem (Rockwell chipset  RCV56ACFW/SP)
modem2: Rockwell chipset RCV 336ACF/SP  Firmware = RCV336DPFSP 

Both modems HARDWARE MODEMS.




With modem1 installed..

dmesg:

Feb 18 17:11:01 mon1 /kernel: sio4: <Motorola VoiceSURFR 56K Modem> at
port 0x3e8-0x3ef irq 5 on isa0



I first setup in /etc/remote
 ' com5:dv=/dev/cuaa4:br#9600:pa=none: '

I also put into /etc/remote

tip33600 |Dial any phone number at 33600 bps:\
   :dv=/dev/cuaa4:br#33600:at=generic:pa=none:du:

tip1200|Dial any phone number at 1200 bps:\
   :dv=/dev/cuaa4:br#1200:at=generic:pa=none:du:





When i Tip into 'com5' i can talk to the modem and everything works. I
can dial out and connect no problem.


Problem is when I use tip to auto dial out via :

' tip -1200 5556201 '    -or-    ' tip -33600 5556201
 
I get 
"
	root /etc->tip -1200 5556201
	Using "/dev/cuaa4"             <---     (after this i get a 'sound' out
of the modem Sounds 
					         like It goes ONHOOK then immidiately goes OFFHOOK)
	timeout waiting for reply
	timeout waiting for reply
	timeout waiting for reply
	timeout waiting for reply
	timeout waiting for reply
	hang up failed
	call failed
	[EOT]
"

I've tried:
  1. Multiple configuations in the /etc/modem with multiple init scripts
	
		rock|generic Rockwell asf Configuration
        		:dial_command=ATDT%s\r:hangup_command=ATH\r:\
        		:echo_off_command=ATE0\r:reset_command=AT&F1\r:\
        		:init_string=AT&F&C1&D2&K3%C0
        	
:escape_sequence=+++:hw_flow_control:lock_baud:intercharacter_delay#50:\
        	
:intercommand_delay#250:escape_guard_time#500:reset_delay#2000:

 2. Recompiling the kernel commenting out sio2 and sio3 
   	(then the dmesg says: 
		sio2: <Motorola VoiceSURFR 56K Modem> at port 0x3e8-0x3ef irq 5 on
isa0
		sio2: type 16550A
	)
	I change the remote to /etc/cuaa2 and try TIP again...
 	And Still has the same problem (ONHOOK/OFFHOOK)

		root /etc->tip -1200 5556201
		Using "/dev/cuaa2"           <----same sound as before 'Doubleclick' 
		timeout waiting for reply
		timeout waiting for reply
		timeout waiting for reply
		timeout waiting for reply
		timeout waiting for reply
		hang up failed
		call failed
		[EOT]

I've also tried another modem (33.6k ALSO ROCKWELL RCV336ACF) in each
case and the symptoms are the same.


Eveything works fine with the External modem i have, But I would like to
get an Internal one to work for once in my life.

Any Suggestions?

I've got all the information on these modem from resources at:
