gsmAccess.begin() doesn't work

Hi

My new GSM Shield doesn't work. I changed the Code in this GSM3ShieldV1AccessProvider.cpp library like this post Code hangs in interrupt when there is poor GSM signal - Arduino GSM Shield - Arduino Forum

I have two different running Swisscom SIM-Cards. In a handy it runs perfectly.

Where is the problem?

Thanks for your support
Mick

Here is the output from serial mon.:

    client.println();
  }

    Serial.println("connection failed");

void loop()

  if (client.available())
  {
    char c = client.read();
    Serial.print(c);
  }

  // if the server's disconnected, stop the client:
  if (!client.available() && !client.connected())
  {
    Serial.println();
    Serial.println("disconnecting.");
    client.stop();

    // do nothing forevermore:
    for(;;)
      ;
  }
}

The Swisscom GPRS parameters I found say to leave password blank?

Hi

That's not the reason. The problem is this syntax:

if(gsmAccess.begin(PINNUMBER)==GSM_READY) {
      notConnected = false;
      Serial.println("Connected");
    }
    else

Any other ideas?

hello

Here is the solution: gsmAccess.begin() <- Befehl wird nicht ausgeführt - #5 by mickmiller - Deutsch - Arduino Forum
