Thompson) Organization: University of Georgia Economics Department Lines: 9 I would like to know how to determine if a modem has or doesn't have a carrier. The program has an open file descriptor (O_RDWR) associated with the modem device. The program waits on messages to send to the modem and the other modem could have timed out and dropped the carrier. Please reply to me via email, and if there is sufficent interest, I will post the results. Jeffrey Thompson
