ok, is there a c function that will dial the modem then hang up. or a combination of functions.

You should use ML instead.

[voidmain]

In Linux? If so, and if it must be a C program, I would have the C program use the system command "chat" or the system command "wvdial":

system("chat -f chatscript -T 555-1212");

Do a "man chat" for more information on this modem utility.

http://www.ziron.com/links/netprog.htm has two or three links that are about modems, if you don't want to use an easier (but more system-hogging) way (the one VoidMain pointed out).

Actually, I don't think there's a universal library. Doesn't it depend on your OS and arch.?

yeah, but it has to hang up FAST. like our current setup. we pick up the phone. and tell the computer to dial. if its a bit slow, we could be hit with a telezapper. and our call doesn't go through.
