Setup Dial-up Internet with PTCIInet on Windows 7?

Posted by Nelson maligro at Jan 05, 2012 04:13 AM

We need help in setting up HF Internet.

We have followed step-by-step configuration of PTCIInet and everything works fine with dial-in server.  On the Client side we setup a Dial-up connection with standard 28800bps modem that points to PTCIIusb modem. 

The client PC is windows 7 and we configured it to use PPP only with PAP authentication. It successfully connect to PTCIInet modem. The problem is we are unable to browse internet. We tried to ping the PTCIInet LAN IP address but a "Request Time Out" replies. 

the ipconfig displays a PPP connection with 192.168.1.2  ip address. We notice also the subnet mask is 255.255.255.255. We tried to ping the configured 192.168.1.1 as ppp ip address on the PTCIInet but same RTO replies. 

Is there any patch or updates to current ptcIInet or PTcIIusb firmware for this to work?

We have a similar problem. The PTCIIUSB connects to the PTC2NET (uClinux Version 0.1.9,  Config Version 0.3.40, Firmware Version 3.9.10), but it does get an IP 192.168.88.2 instead of 192.168.100.2, wrong  DNS and WINS data .

We get the same result with three different laptops on WinXP, Vista and Windows7. According to syslog on the PTC2NET, the client sends a valid 0.0.0.0 request, the PTC2NET replys with the correct answer (192.168.100.2) but this answer never makes it to the client.

Btw. the ppp addresses (192.168.100.1:192.168.100.2) are hard coded in the PTC2NET  flash.

Any ideas?

they are not hard coded MpiEva. You can modify this by Telnet/SSH-ing PTC2net  /etc/ppp/options. 
 
Still the pinging and browsing dont work. Plus A bizzare ppp subnet mask kept on displaying: "255.255.255.255"
 
Does anyone successfully setup an "HF Internet" connection using PTC modems?

Yes, you are right, the IPs are not hard coded - sorry.

The IPs we see after the connect are stored in the Hayes registers S50 to S55 of our PTCIIUSB. You can display the value, eg. for register S50 with the ATS50=? command. The handbook of Professional-Firmware (Version 3.2) has more  details.

The ppp subnet mask of 255.255.255.255 is ok.
