I missed the part in the manual about having s7>=60, thanks. I had increased it from 40 to 50 which didn't help. After reading your article, I increased it to 70, then 100, but all that happened was that I then got "You have waited too long to dial, if you want to make a call, hang up and try again." So I moved it back to 60. Calls that succeed turn the FST (PEP) LED on about 20-25 seconds after dialing. On calls that fail, the other end hangs up sooner than this. | The length of time to successfully connect is a function of the line | quality. I haven't seen this, but these are local calls, so the quality should be pretty good.
