Ubuntu

Software that scans modem, identifies it, and gives instructions on how to configure it.

wget "http://132.68.73.235/linmodems/packages/scanModem.gz"
gunzip scanModem.gz
chmod +x scanModem
sudo ./scanModem
gedit Modem/ModemData.txt

sudo apt-get install wvdial
sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf
less /etc/wvdial.conf

setserial -g /dev/ttyS*

Device should start with "tty".

ps -lax | grep getty
