PE> And where does the manual say that autobauding doesn't work on ATZ? NOWHERE

BG> No, but the manual DOES tell you that you need
BG> to write any baud change to NVRAM with AT&W.

PE> No it doesn't.

He's right. Not once does it mention that if you change the port speed
from the one you last used &W at, that ONLY if you use ATZ as an init
string ALONE, do you need to &W at the new speed. NOT ONCE.

BG> Fucking bullshit.  I've already posted that part of the
BG> manual which states this, so I won't be bothering again.

PE> It doesn't.  You have only ever been able to post irrelevant
PE> stuff. Your favourite is the &B2 when I am using &B1.

BG> Have a quote then...

Didnt help.

BG> -----------------------------------------------------------------------
BG> The following command example substitutes several user-defined
BG> defaults for factory settings.  The modem also stores the port
BG> rate, word length and parity it detects from the AT command prefix.

BG> AT X1 &B0 &M5 &H0 M3 &W 
BG> -----------------------------------------------------------------------

Thats just as true with ALL on USR modems which work fine with an ATZ
modem init string done at a speed different to what was used with the &W

BG> And another....

Even worse.

BG> -------------------------------------------------------------------------
BG> Word length*               8
BG> Parity* 0                  None
BG> DTE rate* (Kbps)           19.2    _

BG> *  Detected by the modem from the AT prefix of the &W command
BG> that writes your defaults to NVRAM.  Set your software to the
BG> desired word length, parity, and serial port rate defaults
BG> before sending the modem the AT . . . &W string.
BG> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thats just as true with ALL on USR modems which work fine with an ATZ
modem init string done at a speed different to what was used with the &W

BG> If that's not clear enough for you, I give up.

Probably wise, you just end up looking like an eejut like this |-)
