> Sometimes Linux tells you your modem is ready even when you have not
selected the correct port, and it will then naturally enough not respond to
your query.  Don't assume that because you get this message that your device
is correctly configured.  Trial and error with different dev/ports is the
only method I know of.  Only an expected response from a modem query is
verification that you are setup correctly.
