Hi Jason,

It depends on what you are using it for as to how you should test it.

Firstly you should confirm that the device files are present and have the correct attributes. Next you should check that you have configured the modem's dip switches or internal settings correctly.

If you are using dial in access, then dial in to the modem and check that it answers and provides the correct prompts. Test this at least 2 times, to prove that the modem and port reset correctly.

For dial out usage either test using your application, or use Kermit or cu to dial out to a known working modem.

regards,

Darren.
