Hello. 2012/12/02 09:41:12 +0330 s m <sam.gh1986@gmail.com> => To Chris Petrik : sm> thanks chris sm> sm> ppp is used when you want connect to internet via modem. What if your (or someone else's) ISP use dial-back? This way ppp(8) can't be used because it's not you want to connect to internet but internet wants to connect you? I believe ppp is an equal peers' peer-to peer (point-to-point) protocol. And it can be used for dial-in conections. > i just want to sm> config my modem by AT command. ppp(8) makes the use of chat(8) to send the Hayes-fashioned AT commands to the modem. sm> when my ppp.conf file is empty, i can talk to my modem Which way requiring emptyness of your ppp.conf you can talk to your modem?
