JM>> I am looking for CAPI drivers for the External I-Modem

 BJ> I believe CAPI drivers are for internal ISDN devices only.

 JM> Why would you think that?
 
Ignorance?  :-)  That's why I prefaced my remark with "I
believe".  Truth is, I have no experience with CAPI drivers and am
probably wrong.

 JM>> as well as any info you might have on bundling B channels under DOS.

 BJ> The only channel aggregation possible with the I-Modem is Turbo PPP,

 JM> Why is this the only bundling possible?  Because the drivers do not

Whoever you spoke with was mistaken.  "Channel Bundling" has
never been implemented in the I-Modem.  If it were, it would be
incorporated in the flash ROM, not an external driver.

 JM>> I am also looking for Init Strings that can be enbled in my mailer
 JM>> to appropriately set the I-Modem for outgoing calls to the following
 JM>> ISDN capabilities:

 JM>> V110L
 JM>> V110H
 JM>> V120L
 JM>> V120H

 BJ> AT&F1.

 JM> Not good enough for use with outgoing calls.

Works here.


 JM>> X.75

 BJ> Not supported.

 JM> So...currently we are stuck not being able to communicate with most
 JM> of the rest of the world and at 5-10% lower throughput than X.75 can
 JM> do?
 
At the present time, yes.
