The actually command is 'atmconfig -u 30 qaa0' 
This will turn on UNI 3.0 signalling for the card.

Joining the elan:

Issue the command 'elconfig show -all' 
This will display all elans that you are eligible to join.
If it displays something other than what you expect, delete the lecs you
are referencing (elconfig delete -lecs) and reassign it either as the
wellknown,
manual or a specific address.

If that still doesn't work, then check the address and the selector
bytes you are 
using for your LECS.

If you are still having problems, email me. I'll be happy to help.
