Placing a 56K TollSaver Call |
For automatic placement of a Multilink PPP call, simply launch the call. For manual dialing, type the following:
ATD <telephone number>
An example is as follows:
ATD 1 908 555 1212
Some Internet service providers require you to dial two telephone numbers to place a Multilink PPP call. The ampersand (&) character is used to dial two telephone numbers.
To automatically dial two telephone numbers, add the following to the dial string of your application software:
<telephone number 1> & <telephone number 2>
An example is as follows:
1 908 555 1212 & 1 908 555 1213
To manually dial two telephone numbers, type the following:
ATD <telephone number 1>&<telephone number 2>
An example is as follows:
ATD 1 908 555 1212 & 1 908 555 1213
Placing a 56K TollSaver Call
You can place a 56 Kbps data call using a voice channel, saving you the additional cost of a data call.
The device you are dialing into must be capable of generating the 2.1 kHz tone needed to disable the echo cancellers on the line. For a list of devices which provide that capability, refer to the readme file on the software diskette.
