The situation is that I currently have 8 modems attached to an STS-10x
terminal server, acting as a bank of callin modems. I have each of
them configured for 'modem ri-is-cd'. Reading the manual I have,
it claims that if I set them for 'modem inout', they modems can
be used for both calling in and dialing out.
I have tried this and it works half way. The modems still accept
in coming calls without any problem. I can %telnet sts10x 4001
and get connected to a modem, but here comes the problem.
The modem appears to accept AT commands; it doesn't echo the commands
back but that is because I have set the modems not to (ATE0Q1).
The modems does dial the number and connect to the end modem, but
then I don't get anything back. IE, any characters coming back
from the other end never appear in my window.
I was just curious as to whether other people have tried this and if
I'm overlooking something real stupid. I plan on trying to dig up
an rs-232 analyzer and seeing what happens to the incoming characters,
but haven't gotten around to it yet.
As an aside, this version supports a limited slip version. What is
the latest version of the ROM? Does is support VJ header compression
on slip? How about PPP?
Here is the configuration:
sts10x> sh hard
