We have not been able to get our Telebit T1000 modems on our Sun 4 to dial out and connect to other Telebits while in PEP mode. Has anyone had any luck doing this Also has anyone had any experience with the T1600. Specifically, how does it compare to the T1000 for interactive applications e.g. editting text files. Thanks, Scott Seaton scott@tripos.com

If the other Telebit modem has the PEP answer tones last in the sequence, your T1000 won't connect in PEP mode unless you make the above changes before you dial. That's my best guess, based on the detail you gave in your posting (not very much, I'm afraid). Try giving Telebit tech support a call. They should be able to nail it down in 20 minutes or so. 1-800-TELEBIT will get you there. > Also has anyone had any experience with the T1600.

It's widely recognized that PEP is less comfortable for interactive work than full duplex modulations like V.32. In a nutshell, I would say that the T1600 would probably be "better" (i.e. more comfortable) than the T1000 for text editing. -- .-------------------------------------------. | Greg Andrews | gandrews@netcom.COM | `-------------------------------------------'
