I'm dialing into a modem, and I haven't done this in ages. If I'm getting garbled characters (those smiley-faces, and hearts, spades, diamonds...etc), this must mean my settings are incorrect.

However, what do I change? Parity? Flow Control? Compression?

I've played with the settings, but it seems I'm getting nowhere. The system gives me a repetition of:

Code:

´5’?µ ´£’?" ´5’?³


and ends with:

Code:

+++ATH0


...which appears to be the Hayes command for "Places the line on-hood and stops communication with modem on other end."

Any ideas as to which settings I could try with success? Where can I learn more about these types of troubleshooting techniques? Very few documents cover modem connections now...
