Shit, knew these NZers were supposed to be fucking
thick, this really takes the fucking prize.

DD> You are in it for the kudos, USR are in it for the money. There is

DD> It is NOT in the economic interests of
DD> USR to solve the Rod Speed modem anomoly.

PE> This MAY be true.  It's still highly unprofessional, not
PE> fixing problems in your modem, which is what my point was.

DD> I would imagine that they, like me,
DD> see this as Rod Speed's problem, not theirs.

DD> When HIS (and only his) modem attempts
DD> to connect to a V.32ter enables Courier,

You dont KNOW that.

DD> the Courier thinks it hears a V.32ter tone

Soorree, there is no such thing as a v32terbo tone.

AND it connects at V32bis fine. EVERY TIME. Poor old Dave.

DD> and tries to retrain up

Soorree, it doesnt do that because it hears any mythical V32terbo tone.
It does connect at V32bis fine and THEN the Courier DEMANDS a retrain, even
tho the V32bis connection is ALREADY at the maximum possible V32bis speed.

DD> (so Rod tells us).

Never said anything remotely like your totally mangled version.

DD> This is obviously not the case when the
DD> called modem is NOT V.32ter enabled/capable.

You completely fucked that up too.

DD> The problem is ONLY exibited with Rod's modem,
DD> therefore it must be his modem making the odd tone.

Talk about a gross surfeit of dog shit between the ears.

DD> As his modem is a superceeded model, ther is no
DD> point in wasting resources trying to accommodate it.

Now try explaining why they dont even give a shit about
the ATY11 wart with other than USR modems. Have fun.

Talk about mindless rabid zealot faking.

PE> And it's a far cry from working perfectly, which is what YOU
PE> were trying to claim.  At least now you're being honest. BTW,
PE> *I* don't want to buy a USR because I want to be able to communicate
PE> with others, including Rod's modem, so they've lost a sale because
PE> of that, so even if what you say is what they think, it doesn't
PE> work all the time.  If they had fixed all the problems I had
PE> reported, I would have bought one. It's as simple as that.

DD> NO modem will connect with EVERY OTHER MODEM straight
DD> out of the box (although the Courier does come close).

Here we go, here we go, here we go, must
be USER ERROR. Sure Dave, whatever you recon.

And the Courier obviously DOESNT come close with /NONE connects either.

DD> Sometimes one must adjust the settings to suit the occasion.

So what you you adjust to avoid the /NONE connects Dave ?

DD> If one MUST connect with Rod, then one simply turns
DD> off V.32ter detection and the problem goes away.

Yes, which disables the Couriers rather bizarre way of trying
to see if the modem on the other end can do V32terbo. Coz
V32terbo has NO REAL CAPABILITY NEGOTIATION WITH V32BIS MODEMS.

Its no coincidence that V34 and VFC works fine, BECAUSE THEY HAVE.

Poor old Dave, these NZers sure are FUCKING thick.

DD> Why does Rod's modem make V.32ter tones if it doesn't support that speed?

It doesnt dorko. NO MODEM DOES coz there aint no such thing.
