Hi Jan,

Telix is displaying the port speed here, which is correct if there is no 
connection.

Telix should display the speed returned by the modem in the CONNECT string.  
For this to work properly, you have to ensure that the modem is returning the 
same CONNECT message that Telix is looking for:  normally the word CONNECT.  
Also, the modem has to be configured to return the DCE speed (the modem-modem 
speed) and not the DTE (port) speed.  Check your modem manual.  Many modems 
use S95 to define the CONNECT string:  try S95=3 (or any ODD number).
Call the system from the terminal screen using the command ATDTxxxxxxxx  
(where the xxx represent the phone number) and press ENTER.  When the modem 
connects, the actual connect string will be displayed.  You'll know you have 
the modem set properly when the string looks like: CONNECT 9600 .  It's modem commands you'll have to change to get that - not the Telix 
parameters.

What do you mean?  Check the telix config and have it set to "Drop DTR to 
hang up".
