I can't connect to the internet with QNX

Hi all,

I hope you can help me with this problem:
When my computer is sending my identification to my ISP, I can see this in
the terminal window:

Using interface ppp0
Connect: ppp0 <–> /dev/ser1
fatal signal 11

and then the comunication finish. What can I do to connect to the internet
with QNX?

I had a similar problem and it turned out I was using a Winmodem. These are
modems which rely on manufacturer’s drivers etc… to operate (they save
costs by not including everything on the modem.) Whereas these work fine in
Windows, they will not work in other operating systems (although I heard
there may be a fix for Linux.) If I was you I would buy a Serial Modem, they
are quite cheap at the moment.

Thanks for your answer.

I´m using a Modem Blaster flash 56k external. I try to use it in both,
serial 1 and 2, and the problem is after call to my ISP. The “Fatal Error
11” is “Hold off”. I use other computer to try to connect with my computer’s
serial port (/net/computer1/dev/ser1) and have the same trouble… The
network is running right. would I have any trouble using a network device at
same time that the modem?

Sorry for my bad english… I´m from Spain

Well, with an external (I assume its serial?) I wouldnt have thought it
would be a win modem… what do other group members think?

:slight_smile: Sorry for not replying right away. The signal 11 is from pppd, try getting
the updated one from developers.qnx.com.
