Modem connection via terminal emulation SW called MobileVT...

[Gord]

Hi,

I need to connect via modem to the PABX. The PABX is connected to modem via RS-232 on the remote side. I tried to use MobileVT SW. The problem is that I do not know which device on P3600 I should select and how to configure if it is even possible. I tried all devices. Some of them allowed me to enter a number but when I confirmed the number I want to dial it simply did not do anything.

Anybody can help on this? Possibly recommend different SW?

I thought that I will select GSM modem and connect via GSM network to the remote modem.

Thanks a lot,

RF

Eeerrh, GSM modem.....

Are you trying to telnet / SSH to your remote PABX host via dialup using the P3600 as an GSM dialup modem?

If yes, then you'll be disappointed. The HTC implementation of the GSM modem has problems in reasonably recent devices, including Trinity.

I have no luck with this new device. Probably 1 out of 10 times, you will get a connection... It has been very seldomly discussed in this forum (go search "CSD" you will find few informative but dated postings), probably because nowadays everyone is hopping onto GRPS, HSDPA, etc.

I for one, however, still find GSM modem very useful despite its 9.6k baud. Wish HTC will fix it, if ever.

Thanks for your input. It is quite important for me. However, it is not a dial up connection as you described it. It is like when you connect to a host using Windows Hyperterminal but if there is a problem with GSM modem implementation as you say it will not work as well.

Have you tried it with new ROM available from HTC? What software perhaps GSM modem settings do you use?

Is there any other way how to make a modem connection using "Trinity"?

I agree that the GSM modem despite it's small speed is still useful.

It is getting strange. I am still making some posts to my own. Anyway, I wonder if you guys can tell me on what Com port the GSM modem can be found and if it is possible to comunicate with it using AT commands like with standard modem.

Thanks for any hint.

Well I did a search on "CSD" and didnt find anything. I am very interested in GSM modem connection as this is the cheapest way for me to connect from the netherlands to my home ISP (0,77 €/hour) whereas UMTS and GPRS costs me a lot of €. So what can we do? Any software helping us?

trying 10 times wont be a solution as every call will cost me 0,77 € which makes 7,70 € at last (GPRS maybe will be cheaper than)....

I see now what you are exactly after. PPP is a nightmare on Trinity - but if you only need a serial connection, that would be easier I presume.

Try mToken, using the Cellular Line - which shouldn't have any user settings BTW since it is a built in device that shouldn't be configurable afterall.

This forum really SUCKS! :mad: It can't search anything less than 4 alphabets, in case you does not notice it.

Try google instead! :D
