Howdy out there in Kermit land ...
Our company is experimenting with file transfer (specifically CAD drawings) to a location in
India. Unfortunately the lines over there seem to be pretty noisy. We either have the line dropped
during the call or, more frequently (always, so far) we have nad no luck getting , for instance,
Zmodem to actually successfully transfer, always seems to time out, bad CRCs. I figure the noise
at that distance is causing this.
Does anyone have any experience with this? Are there better methods/protocols (Kermit?) that can
be used?
BTW: I've looked for but can't find any other newsgroups on modems and file transfer protocols.
Any better place to post?
Thanks in advance.
In great humbleness,
Bill Masters
