req: sample config wic-1am-v2 modem card

Please post sh ver sh ip int br sh modem

output.

Sanitise ip addresses/serial numbers if required.

I have never used a modem like this but I have done a bit of dialup years ago.

By default on cisco interfaces are shutdown, that may be why you have no lights.

#######

I have been making some notes on what might need done. I may as well paste them in here. I do not know anything about the line33 commands however the document that you pointed at has them. The rest should be pretty close I think.

First find out what async interface/line number your card is on.

sh ip int br sh modem

e.g. "Modem 0/3/0 [line 50], Async0/3/0, TTY50"

Substitute this number in all command below for the 33 one.

interface Dialer1 ip address negotiated encapsulation ppp dialer pool 1 ! this is the link to the physical interface dialer string 6662000 ! the phone number to dial dialer-group 11 ! this is the link with the dialer-list ppp authentication chap dialer in-band ppp authentication chap pap ppp chap hostname snipped-for-privacy@xyz.com ppp chap password yourpassword ppp pap sent-username snipped-for-privacy@xyz.com password yourpassword

dialer idle-timeout 300 ! check that this is seconds and ! choose for yourself no shut

interface Async33 ! substitute your number here no ip address dialer pool-member 1 ! phy async mode interactive no shut !

! Identify "interesting" traffic that will bring up the dialer ! in this case ANY IP traffic. dialer-list 11 protocol ip permit

ip route 0.0.0.0 int dialer 1

!/very important/

line 33 ! substitute your number here autoselect ppp modem Out flowcontrol hardware transport input all

You'll also need a chat script and perhaps you'll need to disable the modem waiting for the dial tone before dialing. This is what the ATX3 command does, if the modem can detect the dial tone when it goes off-hook, you can just dial with ATD instead of ATX3D.

Here is my chat script which works with chap authentication by the ISP

chat-script dial "" AT OK "ATX3D \\T" TIMEOUT 60 CONNECT \\C

under the Dialer interface the dialer string is for multitone dialing, for pulse dialing ommit the leading T (or you can put it into the chat script...)

dialer string T modem-script dial

This works nicely with a WIC-1AM (non -V2, but this should not make any difference in the config)

thanks for your feedback. sorry this post is long but I wanted to give all the relevant info. I entered the commands you showed but no joy yet. I must be doing something wrong, I don't know what the command is to invoke a dial-out. The card is working in a strange way though - if I dial my phone number from an outside phone the modem card kicks in and gives the tone thing down the line, kind of like a fax machine so there is life there. Below I've pasted the results for sh ip int br sh modem sh run

one thing that puzzled me was the command: modem Out. My config won't accept that. It would only accept modem InOut but I don't want dial-in.

router#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. router(config)#line 2 router(config-line)#modem Out ^ % Invalid input detected at '^' marker.

router(config-line)#

my config also won't accept 'dialer in-band'

router(config)#int dialer2 router(config-if)#dialer in-band %Remove dialer profile config first (?) router(config-if)#

in the configs below please ignore the ATM0/0 - that's an adsl card. The wic-1am-v2 modem shows up as Async2 thanks for any further pointers.
