 RM> Just currious if anyone can help...  I installed Terminate 4.00... and it
 RM> installed dip switches to my USR Sporster 28.8 V.34 modem...  well... my
 RM> modem isn't taking to it very well and my BBS is down becasue of it...

ml> the FIRST step is to learn to use and use the correct terminology.

ml>   1. there is no way for a software package to install dip switches.

ml>   2. dip switches are switches like little light switches that are    
ml>   encased in Dual Inline Pin packaging. on external modems, these     
ml>  switches are generally on the little block on the back of the      
ml> modem.

 RM> does anyone out there have their manual (mine is in storage) 
ml> that can tell
 RM> me how to set 'em electronicly to factory standards?

ml> AT&F1&W will set the modem to factory profile #1 and store it in 
ml> NVRAM profile #1. this profile uses hardware handshaking (CTS/RTS) 
ml> and is generally required for highspeed modem communications...

ml> with the above, your init string would simply be ATZ.
