[expert] Modem dials wrong number

[Per-Olof Litby (Java Web Services Reg'l Mgr - Nordic - Sun Microsystems)]

Greetings,

Maybe this is not specifically a Mandrake problem, but I'll ask here anyway.
I've installed the Smartlink drivers for the Winmodem  (Lucent based) in my Toshiba Tecra 9000 laptop, and they seem to work fine - modem responds OK to query, commands work OK, etc.

But when I use kppp to dial out, the modem dials the wrong number! Listening to the modem speaker while it dials, it sounds like it sort of stumbles along the way and repeats some digits so that in the end it dials the wrong, and too many, digits.

Has anyone experienced or heard of this problem?

Regards,
