Well, get rid of it (or if you are attachece to it, put single quote
marks around the \rAT. I have never been able to figure out why they put
those \r all over the place in that script.
It is the carriage return in the expect sequence, except tht script has
them all ovr teh place in teh send sequences. Totally silly.
Anyway, your modem does not understand rAT. No modem understands rAT.
your modem refuses to answer such a silly command. Thus your chat script
dies waiting for an OK from that command.
