AT commands, datacall, hyperterminal

[K29]

Nor sure if this is the right subforum for this question. I think it will reach the right people.
Ive successfully used AT commands in Hyperterminal to establish a data connection on a Huawei modem. Why? Just experimenting.

My question is. "Now what?" What can I do with this? It doesn't seem to open a network connection that firefox can access, for example. I've done lots of google searching and on all the websites the examples stop at this point.

Usually one would use something like PPP on top of a modem to handle the "networking stuff". You can search the net for "ppp how to" or similar if you want to know more.
