To summarise: In article <821049446snx@holly.demon.co.uk>, Mark Rogers <mcr@holly.demon.co.uk> writes >I reached this conclusion through a number of tests with varying INIT >strings (I won't bore anyone with the full details of the tests); suffice >to say that using AT&F fails, and AT&F&C1 does not (both work with the >USR modems). Adding &C1 to the failing string posted previously makes it >work, and removing it from the working string makes it fail. >"FAIL" means that the modems connect okay, and login (including display >of motd), but then nothing else happens. In such cases, the KA9Q "ppp >sl0" command reports "LCP listening - waiting for remote host to attempt >open". >Once again, I am prepared to carry out more tests if required, but >hopefully there is something for those in the know to work with here. If >the relevant person/people at Demon have read this, can they let me know; >otherwise could someone tell me who that person/those people would be and >I'll copy this to them by mail. Tell Jim Seagrave, jes@demon.net . He isn't there at the modent, but I am sure he will be interested on his return. >I repeat that the &C1 setting for my Zoom modem is not necessary for the >USRs, and is *not* the default (for this modem at least), which would >possibly help to explain why a number of people have problems connecting >to the Ascend modems. -- Dave English, T U R N P I K E Ltd 250/256 High Street, DORKING, Surrey, UK.
