I experienced the exact same problem using WaveCom FastTrack M1213A-ON (WM14226). You need to change the default init-string. In "group=modems" my init string is set to:
init=string = "AT+CNMI=2,0,0,1,0" Read your modem documentation for more details, but basically this will cause incoming messages to be stored in the SIM card and wait for Kannel to ask for the messages instead of immediately sending the "Message Arrival" signal. Kannel won't ask for the messages in the SIM card while it is busy sending messages from the queue. I got the recommendation to change it to 1,0,0,1,0 but my modem defaults the first parameter to 2 no matter what. Check your modem documentation. Also, make sure to enable sim-buffering. I was also told to set message-storage = "SM" but that caused Kannel not to start. I'm pretty sure that is a default anyway because my modem stores the messages in the SIM card. Also, you may want to play with the keepalive directive in the "group=smsc" section because the default is 60 seconds. Kannel checks for messages in the SIM card at the keepalive interval.

Of recent the traffic volume on the modem increased. When am sending a batch of sms's and then one of the users replies the system goes banana's and starts to return command status -1 some times it even stops communication with the modem and has to reopen the modem again. I was using the 1.3.1 version but after looking at some posts here as regards a similar error on redhat 9 i decided to upgrade to the snapshot version but the same problem prevails. I tried seting the sms-incoming-queue-limit variable to give priority to outgoing messages but to no avail. Any idea's OS : redhat 8 kannel : snapshot modem : wavecom fasktrack wm14080 Andrew ________________________________________________________________________ _________ Cut out the middle man with Dial Direct Insurance, click here for a free e-Quote! http://www.directquote.co.za/emailquote.asp?vdn=5800&tel=0860%2010%2022% 2046
