Hello all,
At the moment I am using RH Linux 4.1 (slack at upgrading) and with
the use of Diald, Mgetty & PPP I have a semi-perm analog 28.2 which is
ticking along OK other then usual drop outs/speed, etc.
I am debating getting Onramp though and I have got myself a loan of a
'Telstra OnRamp Digital Modem' which is just a rebadged '3com Impact
II External Internet TA' to have a play with. I cant do much as I
dont actually have OnRamp installed, but I have plugged it into the
com port on my win98 machine and had a play with the registers with
Hyperterminal. So far it looks pretty much like a normal modem, but I
dont know how I would go getting something like diald/mgetty etc
working with it? Am I completely off the track as I've not used ISDN
and linux together before except with a router and not this all in 1
device (cost saving! :)..
Does anyone have any experience with this device and Linux? I think I
maybe able to work out how to configure it, but Telstra has no
information on advanced configuration and I am only learning about it
from info on 3com's site which makes it harder.
Any info would be appreciated.
Catch ya,
