RB> With all the troubles you discribe, It must be setup or BAD lines.
RB> It can't all be blamed on the modem.

PE> I think it can.

BG> Time to take off those blinkers and open your eyes, Paul.

It's not me that has the blinkers, Bill.

PE> I might be happy to disable the detection phase though, since I don't know 
PE> what that is, so I'll try ATS27=48.

BG> A novel approach you have there Paul.  Seeing as how you don't know what 
BG> trellis coding is either, you might as well disable that too.  :)

Well I know I didn't want to disable the other (LAPM).

RB> Give us a dump of ATi6 ATI11 & ATY11. 

PE> Ok, will post later.  Need to stuff around to get +++ to work.

BG> Oh, rubbish!  "+++, ATY11, ATO1".  Where's the difficulty
with that ?

The difficulty is:

1. My dip switches make it hang up on receipt of +++ so I have
to turn the modem upside down.

2. I have to run Telix in order to get the log because I don't
know how to make binkley do a log when in terminal mode.  I
run telix from DOS because it has a problem speaking to com3 
irq-9 under OS/2.

That's why I have to "stuff around".  Happy now?  So much for
"Oh, rubbish".

RB> How can you expect the gods to smile on you when they have seen you Bag
RB> USR grossly in the past.

PE> I haven't actually (before I got this loaner).  I used to think
PE> it really was the best.

BG> Excuse me ?  Pull the other one Paul.

And even had the audacity to recommend it to others at work.
Although I never said that that was from personal experience,
I just said "the word from the BBS echos".  How about you
come down to Sydney, I'll introduce you to the people I
recommended it to, and then you can pay me $100,000 for
compensation for implication of lying?

RB> This is how you set the Baud rate on setting up the modem originally.
RB> Start your comms prog up and set the comms prog to the baud rate you desire
RB> then do AT&W and it will then stay at the rate you want.

PE> Yes, that is a workaround.  It is still a bug though.  I have to
PE> rewrite the NVRAM instead of just letting the modem auto-detect
PE> on the "AT" command.

BG> More garbage.  Have a quote from the Courier manual...

An apology here would seem appropriate, considering the quote did
not document the behaviour of auto baud rate detect (autobauding
on the "AT" as it indeed does do before sending the response).

RB> Do you have the On Disk version of the Manual. Get Bill to send it to you.

PE> No, not yet.

BG> Would you bother reading it if I crashed it to you ?

I have the printed manual, so cannot see a reason for using the
online one at the moment, which is why I have not asked you for
it.

PE> The courier will be online for the next 2.5 weeks, and then I
PE> have to make a decision.

BG> So why the 14400 V.32bis connect this morning then ?

If it keeps on happening, it will go onto the list of USR Courier
bugs.  I want to see more than a single occurrence though.
BFN.  Paul.
