Does anyone know whether the "Apple modem", which one of our customers
has connected to their Mac, uses "AT"-style commands? If not, can someone
please point me at information about how to talk to it?

If I remember correctly, the Apple Modem is basically Hayes compatible (e.g., it uses the AT command set), but it isn't 100% compatible with the Hayes Smartmodem 1200. -- UUCP: watmath!xenitec!zswamp!root | 602-66 Mooregate Crescent Internet: root@zswamp.fidonet.org | Kitchener, Ontario FidoNet: SYSOP, 1:221/171 | N2M 5E6 CANADA Data: (519) 742-8939 | (519) 741-9553 MC Hammer, n.

It used the Hayes (AT) command set. Unless your customer's modem is older than that, it's safe to assume the (minimal, at least) Hayes command set. -- Steve Dorner, U of Illinois Computing Services Office Internet: s-dorner@uiuc.edu UUCP: uunet!uiucuxc!uiuc.edu!s-dorner

If you're talking about the old-style "Apple" modem (300/1200 only), it does indeed use AT-style commands, although a limited set (i.e. just enough to be compatible). For example, S11 can't be set to anything other than 70ms. I have yet to notice any serious problems. The new Apple 2400b modems (MNP5) are a little better about this. *** Doctor Math Disclaimer: I don't have a job, therefore my opinions are worthless.
