[comp.dcom.telecom] Deaf Dial Tone

Edward_Greenberg@cso.3mail.3com.com (02/09/90)

If the question is, "is it deaf, or is it rotary," (and I'm not sure
which is worse :-) why not reprogram the modem to dial in rotary and
see if the calls start working?  ATDP instead of ATDT should do it.

On properly compatible hayes modems, the P and T can be inserted in
the number, such that "ATDT9,P311-555-2368" would TONE out the 9, then
pause, then PULSE the number.
