<h3>Hardware compatibility</h3>
<!-- START --><p>
This Software needs a GSM modem with SMS command set according to the european specifications GSM 07.05 (=ETSI TS 300 585) and GSM 03.38 (=ETSI TS 100 900).
<p>
When a vendor writes "SMS command set" without giving the specification names, then the device typically supports a subset of this specification. In this case you can surely send 7bit text messages and you can probably receive them. But its not sure, if status reports, binary messages or unicode messages work.
<p>
Mobile phones have more often compatibility issues than real GSM modems.
<p>
Many USB devices are not supported by Unix operating systems.
<p>
The following list is incomplete. It shows devices that are reported as well working:<br>

Probably all mobile phones support status report but you cannot
read them out with a computer. Status reports appear only on the phones display.

<ul>You must cut pin 4 (wich is DTR) of the serial connector because the phone
disables AT command set if the pin is connected and active. The GM22 does
not support ascii mode. Mode=new and baudrate=9600 are the correct settings.
</ul>
<p>
<a name="note2">Note 2)</a><br>
<ul>Replace <b>put_command("AT+CREG?\r"</b>...with <b>put_command("AT+CREG?\n"</b>... in modeminit.c. Set baudrate=115200
and mode=new. This phone was reported as unstable by one user.
</ul>
<p>
<a name="note3">Note 3)</a><br>
<ul>Enter "memory_start=0" into the config file. If you removed the PIN protection from your SIM card, this modem says that the PIN is
locked, which is not true. Remove the pin=1234 line from the config file, then the program will ignore that instead of stopping with an error message. The linux driver for 3G/UMTS version can be loaded with the command "modprobe usbserial vendor=0x0af0 product=0x5000". 
It's assumed that loading the driver works similar for the other versions of that card.
The device name is /dev/usb/ttyUSB0. 
</ul>

<ul>Siemens MC60 and M55 are reported by the user to work with the following settings:<br>
