Re: PPP script problem with US Robotics Sportster 28,800




You need to wait sec before +++ and wait
second after.

So it probably should be:

"WHAT YOU WAIT FOR" "\d"
""                  "+++"
""                  "\d"
""                  "ATH"
or in one line:
"WHAT YOU WAIT FOR" "\d+++\n\dATH"

BTW I did similar tricks with USR it works fine.
