PE>> 3. Modem is initiating a retrain straight after each connect,

PE>> even with V32bis modems.  I would expect that the initial

PE>> negotiation would have figured that out, no need for a retrain

PE>> on every single bloody call.  Yet the ATI6 does not show that

PE>> a retrain was requested.



 PE> So it trains up after every call by design?  Ok, then why doesn't

 PE> ATI6 show the retrain?



The word "Retrain" is loosely used by USR owners for Speedshift as well. 



PE>> 5. AT&F1 sets S56 equal to 16 instead of the default of 0 listed

PE>> in the manual.



DH>> Confirm.  There's a fair amount more of that as well.



 PE> Want to document some of them?  BTW, David Drummond says the

 PE> default on his is "definitely 0".



He is using the July5/July5 SDL.

The July18/July5 SDL is the one that you are using does this.



PE>> 7. USR to USR connect failed due to a retrain failure.  Also,

PE>> USR to USR is showing 21600/2400 as the connect rate.



 PE> The results of ATI6 (defying

 PE> the laws of physics) make it look like the USR is screwed.



Has happen to me once in 15 months connecting to Arthur Marsh and his

Molorola codex 3265 -  Disconnect reason GSTN Cleardown

Might depend on which modem you connect too.
