 ML> I'm pretty new on the modem scene and I was just wondering if anyone

 ML> in Australia, knows how to setup their modem so that it disconnects

 ML> the previous call so that you can answer the incoming call.

 RB> 

 RB> Usually leave this upto the software you are using (it issues an ATA,

 RB> to auto answer)

 RB> 

 RB> OR you can set the modem itself to autoanswer each time by setting dip

 RB> switch 5 off. setting switch 5 on lets the software take control of

 RB> answering.

 

 ML> I have a U.S. Robotics Courier. 33.6K.

 ML> Any assiatance you can give me would be extremely appreciated!

 RB> 

 RB> OR are you talking about  Carrier detect being left High all the

 RB> time.. Like when you are online and reboot your machine and it does not

 RB> drop the connection?????. Look at your dip switch settings and make

 RB> sure you have &C1 on and dip switch 6 set correctly (off).

 RB> 

 RB> The one dip switch that you normally change when initially installing

 RB> a Courier is 9 on an internal courier (and I think 9 on an external

 RB> Courier) It allows you to either stay connected or drop the connection

 RB> when the +++ escape code is issued.

 RB> 

 RB> Make sure you have dip switch 9 on & 10 off
