To all: I have a Computer Peripherals 300/1200/2400 internal modem (the Hook-up 2400) installed in my Compuadd 286 AT clone (6 and 10 MHZ switchable). I spend a lot of time logged into a Unix machine via Kermit (and sometimes othercomm. packages) and periodically just lose my connection, ie. I hear my modem click off and get a 'no carrier' message. I have been assuming a noisy phone line till I got a Tandy 1400 laptop with an internal 2400 modem, which gives me absolutely no problems in connections, downloading, or anything. Has anyone else had problems with this modem or have any suggestions? Thanks in advance. -Larry Stern -- Larry Stern LDSTERN@RODAN.ACS.SYR.EDU

To: Larry I have the same Hook UP 2400 modem as you. (I have 2 infact). I notice they both have trouble when more than "Modem Device" is attached to the same phone line. My problem is I can get the HU2400 to run at 2400 baud when more than one modem,fax,etc. is attach on my phone line. My solution was to run the modem at 1200 baud. That fixed the problem for now. (I don't want to shell out any more money for another wimpy modem). Dave

We have 5 of those modems hooked up to the same line in our office and it works fine-- as well as a fax machine and a few other things. Try disconnecting the FAX or other things until the problem goes away... -- David Kessner - david@kessner.denver.co.us | do { 1135 Fairfax, Denver CO 80220 (303) 377-1801 (p.m.) | . . .
