Modem Installation- No Carrier found error

[GireeshMoosad]

Hi,

I've a problem while configuring my modem in linux( Red Hat 8.0). The diling is working but an error message comes saying: No Crrier.
I own an internal Modem (Dax 56kbps). What will be the problem?
Any body please help me.

NB: My ISP is sancharnet(BSNL-India).

regards
Gireesh.

/dev/tty0 = COM1
/dev/tty1 = COM2
/dev/tty2 = COM3

I think internal modems are usually COM3, so try setting the modem to use /dev/tty2.

It did not work.

Only /dev/modem is working.

When I installed the driver for modem ( by running the install.dat file which was given with the package), I got the following output



[root@localhost pctel]# ./install.dat

They told that the warnings are normal and shall be discarded.

Is the modem properly wired/designed for your local telecommunications requirements? Did you buy it locally? There was a time when certain modems could only be used in certain countries because of capacitances, voltages, etc.

Are you able to test the line with another modem to verify it works?

"No Carrier" implies that the number on the other end is not answering with a modem tone, which doesn't necessarily imply that YOUR modem is broken.

Check the obvious stuff again.

The modem & and line are all OK. It's working perfectly with windows OS. I'm replying this thread through that modem but from windows.
