Dear all,
I've read many material and all your direction in this forum, but I still can't capture the caller id.
I use SmartLink 56TS V.90 & X2, and my phone line is caller id enabled (when people call me, I can see the caller's phone number in my telephone's screen). I put my phone line into the LINE hub of my modem and test with HyperTerminal. Here is the AT command and the result:
AT
OK
ATZ
OK
AT#CID=1
OK

then, I used my mobile to call the modem, but it only showed:
RING
RING
RING

without callerID.

I don't know why? Anyone who has experience please help me, thanks a lot

You need software on the computer that will interpret the incoming caller ID information which is usually sent between the first and second ring.

Hyper terminal does not have this facility and just ignores it.

A search of Google will find many applications that you can use to display caller ID.
