modem with which you wish to connect, e.g., ATD6127853500. Your

modem negotiates the kind of connection it can make, and once the
modems have settled on a common connection, a connect message
on your computer’s video is displayed. To hang up a call, enter
ATH0<CR>. Your modem will return on hook, just as if you had

signifying that your modem is ready for your next command.
