Re: wvdial doesn't detect agrmodem 11c1:048c

Antonio,

Thanks for your quick replies.

I tried acpi=off, pci=pollirq, pci=routeirq, pci=noacpi. None have had any effect. Also tested your wvdial.conf but i got the same result as before "Modem not responding.".

On Monday I will try moving the modem to a different PCI slot and see if that has any effect.

Robin,

The agrmodem, agrserial are there.  dmesg shows that agrsm modem is
loaded.  The other thing I can think of, is have you booted with

acpi=off

parameter?
And when trying to connect/dialout open up another terminal shell or
tab and type

# tail -f /var/log/messages

Also, Hugo was very helpful when I could not make the 11c1:0620 agrsm
modem work, when wvdialconf did not find the /dev/modem or
/dev/ttyAGR3 modem port, he suggested I try the following wvdial.conf
file attached here so you can try it when you have a chance:

[Dialer Defaults]
  Modem = /dev/modem
  Baud = 57600
  Init1 = ATZ
  Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0&C1&D2
  Init3 =
  Area Code =
  Phone = PHONE_NO_GOES_HERE
  Username =YOUR_USERNAME_GOES_HERE
  Password =**********
  Ask Password = 0
  Dial Command = ATDT
  Stupid Mode = 1
  Compuserve = 0
  Force Address =
  Idle Seconds = 300
  DialMessage1 =
  DialMessage2 =
  ISDN = 0
  Auto DNS = 1

Try the above advice and maybe?  it may work?

Regards,

Antonio

Hi Antonio,

On Monday I will check if i can have the modem swapped with another one
if we don't make any progress.
But for now, as you requested:

Robin,

What does output of
# lsmod | grep 'agr*'
show?

and output of
# dmesg | grep 'agr*'

show?

BTW,
the 11c1:048c modem is a difficult one, your mileage may vary.  As for
alsa, I think that it does not use ALSA like 11c1:1040 modem.  But
maybe Bjorn, Nikolay or Marv can explain this much better than I can.

Thank you for your suggestion,

I verified that the /dev/modem symbolic link exists:

      # ls -l /dev/modem
      lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 2010-03-13 08:58 /dev/modem ->
/dev/ttyAGS3

Then I created /etc/wvdial.conf:

      [Dialer Defaults]
      Modem = /dev/modem
      Baud = 4800
      Init1 = ATZ
      Init2 = ATQ V1 E1 S0=0&C1&D2 +FCLASS=0
      ISDN = 0
      Modem Type = Analog Modem
      Phone = 555
      Username = test
      Password = test

And ran wvdial:

      # wvdial
      -->   WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.60
      -->   Initializing modem.
      -->   Sending: ATZ
      -->   Sending: ATQ0
      -->   Re-Sending: ATZ
      -->   Modem not responding.

Unfortunately, as you can see, the modem doesn't even respond to ATZ at
the lowest baud rate.

This has happened to me with the agrsm modems, namely 11c1:0620 and
11c1:0630 respectively, but I can still dialout with wvdial :),

This is what I tried to state below.  I am sorry for any confusion if
I caused any,

do a
# ls /dev/modem -l

Setup a wvdial.conf file by looking at samples from
Modem/DOCs/wvdial.txt

and use /dev/modem as the port(provided you have the link above)

Try to connect, and then report back.  I can connect with 1cc1:0620
and 11c1:0630 agrsm modems and wvdialconf does not appear to find them
, but I can dialout and connect.

Try that and let us know if this works or not.

Hi,

I'm in the process of installing a WinModem from Agere/Lucent on
Debian
Lenny.

According to scanModem the modem's PCI ID is 11c1:048c.
Knowing this I successfully installed the driver from
agrsm048pci-2.1.60_20100106_i386.deb onto my system.
Inserting the created kernel modules (agrmodem&    agrserial) don't
give
any errors in /var/log/messages.
After confirming that /dev/ttyAGR3 exists and creating symbolic links
to
it (/dev/ttySAGR&    /dev/modem) I try to run wvdialconf to confirm
that
everything went correctly.

But unfortunatly wvdialconf returns the following:

       box:/home/me# wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf
       Editing `/etc/wvdial.conf'.

       Scanning your serial ports for a modem.

       Sorry, no modem was detected!  Is it in use by another program?
       Did you configure it properly with setserial?

       Please read the FAQ athttp://open.nit.ca/wiki/?WvDial

       If you still have problems, send mail
to<wvdial-list@xxxxxxxxxxxx>.

I tried changing kernels, 2.6.30 and 2.6.32, both have the same
behaviour ( 2.6.26 won't compile citing an error in a struct
definition).
Also tried various boot parameters: pci=pollirq pci=routeirq
pci=noacpi
and disabling the on-board soundcard.
And i tried older versions of the driver
(agrsm048pci-2.1.60_20090905_i386.deb) and compiling by hand
(agrsm048pci-2.1.60_20100108.tar.gz)

Seeing as there are no error message I don't know where to look for a
problem, can anyone point me in the right direction?

P.S. I don't quite understand the relationship between the agrsm
driver
and ALSA, should my modem be listed in /proc/asound/cards ? Because it
currently reports: --- no soundcards ---
