Diagnostic modem??

[drewmerc]

third time i've seen that today people saying "how to telnet", seriously what are you people doing? why are you not trying to understand the inner workings of a modem, all the unspoken answers lie there

using putty http://the.earth.li/~sgtatham/putty/late.../putty.exe

Open Putty. Click the 'session' section of the settings panel:

Connection type: Telnet
Host Name: 192.168.100.1
Port: 23
Close window on exit: Never

Click 'open', enter username and password and press enter.
(at this point if your modems online you get a cm> prompt if not enter the following command)
cd \cm_hal
scan_stop
cd \
(scanning should now stop)

help


and there you have it, i guess first you should learn how to use the help command

Code:

COMMAND: help

USAGE: help [-t|-l|-s|-i|-a|-lr] [command [...]{126}]

the active table.

Command is the name (or partial name) of one or more commands and subtables
for which you want detailed help to be displayed.
