My T2500 sometimes breaks out of CONNECT mode and spits out an OK when I type CTRL-C. This is very weird, because it doesn't always do that. It's just like when you tell the modem to send a "break" and it hops out of CONNECT. Is this some sort of "feature?" Very annoying. -Henry (hhwong@usc.edu)

Very annoying. > Nope, that's not a feature. The T2500's default configuration will drop into command mode when you send a break (S54=0), but it won't do that if you merely send a CTRL-C. Even if you programmed the modem to look for CTRL-C as the 'escape' character (S2=3), it would take three consecutive presses with a one second pause before and after. Simply pressing it once wouldn't do the trick. I would guess that something somewhere is sending a break signal when you press CTRL-C. If you set S54=3, then the modem will pass breaks through and not drop into command mode. Try that and see if the problem stops. -- .-------------------------------------------. | Greg Andrews | gandrews@netcom.COM | `-------------------------------------------'
