The modem needs to be optioned to not echo commands and to not send
response messages.  The modem also must be configured to reset and
go to the command mode whenever DTR is dropped.

And you need to write that configuration to the eeprom or nvram or
whatever it has.

I'm writing this without any modem books at hand, so...
