- I *think* I fixed the problem -- I tried DTR=ON, and DTR=OFF, and leaving
- the DTR statement off altogether (talking about MODE command, here)...
- none worked. I then said, what the heck, and just put in DTR with no
- parameters (instead of DTR=... I just have DTR) and now the modem hangs
- up instantly!
-
- I have to see if this works with other callers, but it certainly works
- now with my other PC.
