    I was naughty. It did change the dialprefix, and after rebooting I went through the screen menu but it still returns a "Failed. No dial-in number chosen". I'll revert to the previous oztivo.conf methinks.

    Not sure where to go from here. Any suggestions?

    Did the dial prefix remain ,#401 though?

    if not, a drity method to fix it would be just to add
    dbsetx /State/PhoneConfig DialPrefix ',#401'

    As the last line of rc.sysinit.author

    Yep, the dial prefix did remain,#401 however the machine still expected a phone number for the modem. I reverted back to the initial oztivo.conf.

    I tried your suggestion of of the addition to rc.sysinit.author with the same result - the network dial prefix remained, and show up on the on-screen guided setup, but the error message "Failed. No dial-in number chosen" still comes up.

    It must be something more fundamental I've not done. Somewhere else it is getting the parameter to use the modem.

    If the dial prefix remained originally, then you don't need the extra line in rc.sysinit.

    Can you post your tclient.log after trying a daily call. You may need to zip it if it's too big.

    Can do (possibly). Which directory will I find the log file in?

    /var/log

    or use TW(P) if it's working for you.

    can you please paste a zip of your rc.sysinit.author

    And change /etc/rc.net/rc.net so it contains

    #
    #!/bin/sh
    #

    if /sbin/insmod -f /lib/modules/turbonet.o macaddr=00:0B:AD:10:10:10 timing=3 ; then
    export DYNAMIC_NET_DEV=eth0
    mkdir -p /var/state/dhcp
    /sbin/dhclient -q eth0 2>/dev/null &
    fi

    /etc/rc.net/rc.net was already exactly as you had listed it, no change needed.

    zip of rc.sysinit.author is attached...

    Ok, that is different to what you showed in post #6. The MAC address was funky.

    Now change /etc/tclient so it contains

    # This is for the server emulator on minnie via emuproxy2.
    127::127.0.0.1:8000:::

    Then reboot and try forcing a daily call again.
