Currently I havepayed over 20.000 Euro for ETSI and ANS specs  and  have
currently not the money to buy more...  Are the ETSI  AT-GSM  specs  are
free available?  --  If yes, I need them!

I mean the USB-Endpoints...

If you have an USB-Microcontroller where the USB port is  a  device,  it
identify it self over the Endpoint 0 and is for us non usable.

And no it comes, where I haveproblems to understnd HOW the GSM Modem  is
working but I will assume some things:

The EP1 of the USB-pot is configured for bidirectional Data transmission
andwill controll out Device and is normaly  configured  as  /dev/ttyUSB0
and this is, where we use the AT commands to  get  infos  from  the  GSM
modem/cellphone and send/receive SMS.

Now We need EP2 and configure it as streaming output for the Audio port.

EP3 would be the streaming input for the Audio Port.

is this right up to here?

Then, EP4 would be the bidirectinal dataport  for  the  UMTS  and  HS*PA
Tranceiver, since it is entirely independant from the rest  of  the  GSM
modem/cellphone.

Is this right?

If yes, then it is easier as I was thinking...

My "Nokia 6120 classic" has in total 13 endpoints...  Hell, where can  I
get an USB-Microcontroller which support this mass of USB Endpoints?

Most ARM9/11 support not more then 7 or 9.  :-(

Most important things are the above desibed understanding  problem  with
the USB Endpoints

I have the HSPA and GS frontends (Maxim and Infineon chips) here and  my
selfemade simple GSM/GPRS cell-phone is already working,  but  has  less
functionality as the cell-phones from Year 2000  :-D

Hey, ist is my first experience of developing GSM stuff.

I an to develop a VERY simple GSM/UMTS/HSPA USB-Modem which do  its  job
without balast.

So if someone can help me with infos, I am very open...

I prefer FreeSwitch over Asterisk which froze in the  last  2  years  to
many times in situations where it should not freeze, exspecialy if  I  a
call a Chip-Manfacturer (Maxim/TI) Tech-Support.  --  It is not funny!
