Have Potato working and trying to use the dial-up modem. Configured pppdconfig with no problems. Entered pon and an error stating that in /etc/ppp/peer/provider the modem was wrong. Modified that file with ttyS1 and 115200. Now when entering pon I get the dial tone but no dialing of the phone number. Looking in the "provider" file again there is a"defaultroute" that needs defining. Have read the manual on pppd there is an entry as follows: defaultroute Add a default route to the system routing table, using the peer as the gateway, when IPCP negotiation is successfully completed. Have no idea of what default route should be added to the system routing table ( who knows where this table is located).
