[comp.dcom.modems] Basic T2500 problems

marquis@well.sf.ca.us (Roger Marquis) (09/20/90)

I suspect that my difficulties should have easy solutions.  Being
a new T2500 user.  I'm running in conventional command mode to retain
downward compatibility with only AT~&F1 for an init string.
 
First: The modem will not answer the phone.  Using PCanywhere I can
dial in briefly then, after a few seconds, I'll dial in again and the
modem will not pick up the phone.  This has not been a problem with
other modems.

Second: I can't hang up from my terminal. `+++ATH0` will not do it and I'm
not sure what will. I've tried ATC1 and ATC0.

Third: Some 2400b numbers occasionally will not sync.  Sometimes I'll
get a "10" at the beginning of the line and, though the lights show I'm
online, no response.  Other times I get a garbage response.  Then, yet
other times all will work fine.  Very unusual and not something I've
seen in 2400b modems.

Has anyone had similar experiences and know what the solutions might
be?  Any help would be appreciated.
