Please help.

When asking if PIN is required, your modem did not answer. This is a fatal failure, and therefore smsd stops.

You may have more problems with this modem, but first you should disable the PIN. Use your handset for disabling. Then use the modem setting pin = ignore. With this setting smsd does not even try to ask the status of PIN.

Great, thanks! This is right solution to me.
