Basic Modem Settings for UNIX
Unix environments usually don't like modem responses or echoing
of commands. Therefore you should set ATE0Q1.
Depending on your Unix setup, the cable and software used, you
may have to disable carrier detection using AT&C0.
Unix Software Tips
In order to use your ZyXEL modem from a terminal or an X-
Windows application, you need a program such as Minicom or
Seyon.
If you wish to make use of your ZyXEL modem's special features,
special gettys such as mgetty or vgetty are needed. These programs
are available from several ftp-sites. Some archives also contain
source files.
You should suppress the modem's result code to (ATQ1) because
some applications may be confused by them.
