(I am still trying to solve my "connected but can't get anywhere" dialin to FreeBSD problem) Last time I connected but couldn't get anywhere, I believe this was the mgetty log: 01/21 01:52:55 yd0 mgetty: experimental test release 1.1.31-Jul24 01/21 01:52:55 yd0 check for lockfiles 01/21 01:52:55 yd0 locking the line 01/21 01:52:55 yd0 lowering DTR to reset Modem 01/21 01:52:56 yd0 send: \dATQ0V1H0[0d] 01/21 01:52:57 yd0 waiting for ``OK'' 01/21 01:52:57 yd0 found action string: ``NO CARRIER'' 01/21 01:52:57 yd0 init chat failed, exiting...: Invalid argument 01/21 01:52:57 ##### failed in mg_init_data, dev=ttyd0, pid=77061 So I'm wonder if I should use the "force-init-chat" with mgetty config. All the examples I see say: QUOTE: To get the modem back into a "sane" state, you can use the force-init-chat chat sequence. The default setup will send the DLE ETX characters, to revive voice modems, then the (pause)+++(pause)ATH0 sequence to pull the modem from data mode to command mode. UNQUOTE OK, that sounds great, but how to I use the default setup? What is the force-init-chat line that I should use for 'default'? I didn't see anything in the mgetty.conf file or in Google, except a lot of places quoting the above. It doesn't say how to use the default, or how to enter "pause" in the expect/send pairing, or how to send the DLE ETX characters TjL
