[comp.dcom.modems] Telebit TB+ and SunOS upgrades

zjat02@apctrc.trc.amoco.com (Jon A. Tankersley) (09/28/89)

Anybody noticed a degradation TB+ uucp spoofing as the OS release from Sun
come out?  My TB+ was working fine with 3.5, got itermittent errors with
4.0.1 and now fails quite often with 4.0.3 running 19200KB.  Anybody else
noticed this?  Anybody found a way around it?  Bodes grim for SunOS 4.1.
Sun recommended using 9600 KB for the modem connection, and that did
help somewhat, dropping back down to the intermittent level of 4.0.1.

Errors seem to be protocol errors.  Here is a trace:
	r short 2 want 3
	rcount = 0
	xcount = 0
Unfortunately, it happens somewhere deeep in the connection usually and
I don't run with -x on my uucico.

And the TB+ registers:
