[comp.dcom.modems] T2500 <-> ?????

joe@cbnews.att.com (joseph.t.judge) (03/16/91)

	We are using Telebit 2500's here at work and I've gotten a hold
	of an AT&T Dataphone II 2296 (V.32) modem for myself. 

	I can set the Telebit to call me and talk V.32 fine. I cannot seem
	to get it to call me and talk V.32 with MNP. I live where dirty
	phone lines make 9600 baud with no error correction unusable!

	A couple questions....
	
	*Does anyone know where I can find a manual for the AT&T Dataphone
	II 2296 modem? or know a way to get it talking MNP with it's V.32
	connection from the Telebit?

	*Is the 2296 modem too gorpy to actually deal with and I should
	get a newer/better/different modem to talk to the TB at faster 
	speeds?

	The bottom line is that I want to talk answer calls from the TB's 
	at a greater than 2400 baud speed. With stinky phone lines, I need
	some kind of correction - I think. So, what can I do with what I 
	have? or what should I look to ?

Get another Telebit.  The V.xx protocols are all very well on good
lines, but PEP will keep going over a piece of knotted string with
a tin can at each end :-)
