/* ---------- "help!! DMS100" ---------- */
We have recently installed a Northern Telecom DMS100 switch on campus.
We have been experiencing a number fo problems with 1200 and 2400 modems and
spurious line noise. Most characteristic are the two characters { and del,
together received on lines comming from the switch. The local telephone
company has corrected the problem with most local phones, only by repairing/
replacing local trunk line equipment not associated with the switch, but
through which calls may come in to the dms100 and university mainframes.
We still have unacceptable problems on long distance lines, which they are
now tracing out through long distance trunks.....maybe they have to "fix"
the rest of the country to work with us. Has anyone out there had
similiar problems with DMS100's or similiar digital switches? Please respond
by mail, I'll summarize.
