Re: configuration issues with Siemens MC35i - SOLVED!
Hi all Got it working...my config was fine. The problem was the USB to serial converter; it didn't do HW flow control. The clue was that I couldn't attach to the MC35i using Minicom with HW flow control on, only off. However it appears that Kannel expects HW flow control(?) so I jimmied together a serial cable with pins 1,4 and 6 shorted together, and it worked. Now to play :-) Thanks for all the suggestions and advice, guys! Regards, Peter Leo McManus wrote: Had a lot of problems setting up a plane MC35 for data/PPP sessions on a real commport.
