Modem configuration
Although most connections will work appropriately with the default settings on CABCONS1716I, manual changes can be made. To do so:
Login to the Web interface as Admin. Click Modem, listed on the left side of the main page. You will then be presented with the Modem Option menu (see above). Make the following changes to enable and configure the modem connection:
1.Enable modem connections (PPP) via serial port/modem: select Enabled.
2.Baud rate to use (affects connection between us and the modem only): select 115200.
3.Init string: leave as ATE0S0=1&K3.
The baud rate dictates the connection speed between the CABCONS1716I’s serial port and the modem, and does not affect the connection speed between the local and remote modems, as they will negotiate their own connection speed when a connection is made. It is highly recommended that this setting be left at the default for best performance.
The initialization (“init”) string is the command (using the standardized Hayes AT command set) that the CABCONS1716I will send to the modem to activate it. The included string should work with the majority of modems and configures the following connection properties: answer incoming calls on the first ring, enable hardware flow control, and lock the connection speed.
Your modem’s documentation will describe other potential init strings in greater detail, that you can use to alter the connection properties. For instance, you could commit the settings to the modem’s
To simplify the troubleshooting process, you may wish to test the connection with the default init string first, prior to making changes specific to your modem model
or situation.
Click the Commit button to save your changes and activate the modem feature with the specified settings.
