Re: [ubuntu-uk] TC65T gsm/gprs modem
the modem uses the standard AT command set, and setserial is now installing.

Ah yes, you need to install setserial using the apt tool of your choice as per here: http://ccollins.wordpress.com/2007/07/17/serial-port-jiggery-pokery/ I would imagine that the modem will need a driver or at least a bit of port voodoo which will be hard to work out until you can see it.

[ubuntu-uk] TC65T gsm/gprs modem
I have just purchased a TC65T to use with my monitoring server to send out text alerts. I've tried using the serial port terminal to communicate with it but there is no response. I think that the PC's serial port is not working correctly with Ubuntu. can anybody give me a hand to get it working properly?
