[comp.dcom.modems] Multitec

Hope to get more info, but here goes with what I have.

Our campus phone system has Multitech v.32 modems with the
port speed (rs-232 side) locked at 9600 baud.  I can post a status
summary (soft switch settings, etc.) if it will help.

Problem: Can connect to v.32bis USR modems okay, as either Dial-in or Dial-out
modems... but when an attempt is made to connect to another Multitech v.32 modem
things don't work right.  I've heard that one-way transmission is possible
but since I work in a full-duplex (okay... duplex for the modern english 
nit-pickers out there...) mode, I can't tell that it works at all.

I cannot directly inquire of the modems, but the folk that operate the phone
switch can plug a PC directly into the modem for trouble-shooting.

The 9600 port speed is a limitation of our campus phone system.  Also,
the modem is protected from direct control by a user.

Make sense... right?  E-mail or Post...
