Malheureusement, ca n'a pas march=E9! Je vais vous expliquer ce que j'ai=20
fait! Dans le directeur /etc/ppp, j'ai cr=E9e le fichier _chat-zapp_ qui =
a=20
le contenu suivant:

ABORT  "NO CARRIER"
ABORT  "NO DIALTONE"
ABORT  "ERROR"
ABORT  "BUSY"
ABORT  "Username/Password Incorrect"
""  "ATZ"
OK  "AT&C0+CRM=3D1"
OK  "ATDT#777"  (the dial-up number for my CDMA service provider)

Apr=E9s ca, j'ai cr=E9e un autre fichier (nom=E9e disons Nokia), dans le=20
directeur /etc/ppp/peers. Son contenu est

ttyU0 230400 crtscts
connect '/usr/sbin/chat -v -f  /etc/ppp/chat-zapp'
noauth
defaultroute
usepeerdns

I tried to initialize the modem with

# pppd call Nokia

Nothing happens. Under Linux it worked with ttyUSB0 instead of  ttyU0.=20
It seems that I'm stuck. I have two entries in the /dev directory :=20
ttyU0 and ttyU1. Any hint is wellcome.

Thank you very much,
Bogdan
