Re: Specifing Hays Extended Command Set in PPP 2.4.1

[Frank Krauss <fmfkrauss@mindspring.com>]

Hello Bill,

Thank you very much for your feedback.

That was exactly my problem.  I had to put anything that had special 
characters within Single Quotes.  Then It worked perfect.

Just for your Information, concerning this particular Modem, 
I had to specify the exact same string as my first set of AT commands
as was created by the MINICOM program when it iniatializes the Modem.
When I specified that String as my first one, the Modem is now working
great with PPP/CHAT.

Thank you again for your great information.

Yours truly,

Frank
