I'm having a different but certainly related problem now.
I can talk to the modem fine from within minicom, but my terminal session
appears to "lock" after the modem negotiates connection to the remote and
returns the "CONNECT" string. After connecting I press "enter" and nothing
at all happens until I'm disconnected a minute or so later.
However, I connect the modem to my intel box and dial in, I press "enter"
and am greeted with a login prompt.

I don't understand what's happening here. Could the cable be bad in some
subtle way, or do I need some special init string? I'm just lost right
now.
