Using a pair of (new) T2500s in V.32 mode for interactive connection to a terminal server, I've been seeing the following problem more and more often: Characters from the remote machine stop reaching my terminal. I know that typed characters are still reaching the remote machine. Escaping to command mode and going back online (ATO) does not help. Escaping to command mode, issuing a retrain (AT&R) and going back online always fixes it. At this point I can see that what I had typed "blind" did indeed reach the remote machine. The "line quality" register is 100 at all times. Anybody seen this before? Dan Lanciani ddl@harvard.*

There seem to have been a lot of problems with T2500's retraing after the call has been initiated and then failing the retrain, even though the first training went ok. Perhaps they've added some undefined register to control how bad things have to get before breaking down and trying to retrain, or perhaps something is broken... -- George Robbins - now working for, uucp: {uunet|pyramid|rutgers}!cbmvax!grr but no way officially representing: domain: grr@cbmvax.commodore.com Commodore, Engineering Department phone: 215-431-9349 (only by moonlite)
