The modules that Rockwell has been supplying recently have a feature where they misakenly think they have connected in the turbo mode rather than plain ol' V.32. Of course, this completely hoses the data transfer and the modems eventually will disconnect when enough errors occur. (That's not a bug, that's a Feature!) The T2500 modems can sometimes have this problem when making synchronous connections - asynchronous connections are fine. Tech support knows how to tweak the modem to prevent false turbo connections. (No, the 'turbo' mode isn't V.32bis.) -- .------------------------------------------------------------------------. | Greg Andrews | UUCP: {apple,amdahl,claris}!netcom!gandrews | | | Internet: gandrews@netcom.COM | `------------------------------------------------------------------------'
