The problem, I think, is that &F overrides everything else (even more
than powering-up again does!)  What I did was to enter AT39.0=1*TD9
then follow that with AT anything else you need or want (eg AT\V4) and
then AT&W to save the profile.  Then all I put in my init string (for
FreePPP, but the principle is the same) is ATZ, which resets to the
*stored*profile.  AT&F appears not to be helpful in this situation.   I
now get good connects about 90%+ of the time - not wonderful, but I
suppose it will do.  It would be wonderful though if someone could
really sort out the Moto - Ascend connect problem once and for all.  I
wish....
