I just got some Courier HSTs, and I would like to know how to get the maximum throughput connected at 14,400 bps. The manual suggests that you set your comm software for 38.4K bps to allow maximum data transfer between the computer and the modem. I am using Procomm, and whenever I set the baud rate to anything other than 9600 bps I am not able to use the modem at 9600 bps. My dial string is: AT&B1&H1X6DT. One other question: without having to perform a test, how can I verify that I am connecting to another HST at 14.4K bps? The connect message is: CONNECT 9600. Thanks, Will (sun!portal!cup.portal.com!Will)

(1) Set up a 9600bps connection between two Couriers. (2) Send lots of zeros so that the compression algorithm in the modem has something to compress. The HST uses a 9600bps modulation scheme, and 14.4kb/s claims are for modulation speed * compression ratio. If you are mostly using it to download archived files, you will get 9.6kb/s, as the data is already compressed. Peter Desnoyers Apple ATG (408) 974-4469
