A dial-up dialer for connection to Internet providers

Sample Image - afdialer.jpg

Introduction

I have written dial-up dialer for connection to Internet providers. This is a simple little program that dials your modem and tracks your online time. It also allows the user to setup multiple dial in numbers and gives the user a basic settings screen.

The sourcecode is freeware and can be distributed under terms of GPL. It is written in Visual C++ with use of MFC, RAS API and several other APIs like Performance Counters and multimedia API. Contact me if you have any suggestions on this software (lamer2000@hotmail.com) or on this article (alexander.fedorov@usa.net).

General(Re: querry) modem scripts? Pin

i have a similar question.
with the old win3.x it (and trumpet winsock - if i remember correctly) you could set some scripts for the modem, how to dial to your ISP.

nowadays (with Win98 SE) i can't find any place to activate or configure those kind of scripts.

in my scenario my modem should do the following:
a) with pulse dialing: dial "0"
b) wait for dial tone:
if (dial tone present) {
continue; }
else {
hangup;
wait (1 minute);
goto a); }
c) switch to tone dialing;
d) dial the specified number (to ISP);
e) exit

here are my questions:
1) how and where can you activate those scripts with windows dial-up networking?
2) how and where can you activate those scripts with the "afdialer"?
3) if it has to do with the modem "AT"-commands - where do you get some documentation on these, so you can successfully write your own scripts?

thanks for your time,

smerk
