Hi There,

In recently buying a Rockwell Data/Fax modem, 56,000 v34bis Modem model
No FM-56XT, (Similar to Origo Modem, in looks anyway), I have been asking
for help in getting the init string to be able to get it to work properly.
I have flashed it to v90 successfully. I sent the manual to Demon to
see if they could help with the init string and this was answered with
several different ones, none of which appeared to make it work. I now
cannot get Demon to return my Manual, even although I sent a cover letter
asking that it be returned as soon as poss, and plastered my name, address
and email address all over it. So I am desperate for some help here.

I have managed to get some life out of it. I configured the nvram with
AT&FE0V1&C1&D2S95=47S0=0

My dialscript further configures it with
AT+MS=56,1,32000,56000,0,0 %E0%C2\N3

This allows me to connect and even to do some downloading. However after
downloading a couple of files the download speed slows right down and
becomes intermittant, sometimes sitting idle for over 5 minutes before
bringing in another small bit then idling again. Eventually the connection
drops.

Any help you could give me in getting this modem to work would save me
from going insane!!!!

Many, Many thanks in advance, I Hope?   :-(


Matt Parker..
