I had tried both ttyUSB0 and ttyUSB1 .. ttyUSB0 wouldnt respond at
all, so I thought maybe its ttyUSB1. And ttyUSB1 was a very good
obedient COM port that would just say "OK" to the SETPORT or NDISUP
:). But its not that it says OK to anything I throw at it, it would
also report error for incorrect/unsupported AT commands.

Rgds,
Gopa.
