ok heres the situation:

one digiboard pc16em 
bsdi 2.0.1
a us robotics 28,8 attached to port 1

here is the problem:

when i tip the device
i cannot get anything "returned" to my terminal
if i type AT nothing happens.
but when i type atdt ###-#### i am able to connect
but i cannot get anything returned to my terminal
like a login banner or something.
when i connect to the modem from another machine
i connect successfully but i do not get a login banner.
(i do have the getty running on that device.)

so if anyone can help, i would be most appreciative.
