I have a standard external Zoom modem which works fine. I setup the Zoom
with an init string which includes s0=1 and then set K95 in server mode, the
other side dials in and sends and gets files as needed.
As an excersise to prove I have no life, I was messing around with a USB
modem to see if I could get it to work specifying it as Tapi. I initially
set the modem by going into connect mode and sending an AT string which
seemed to take fine but I could not get the USB modem to keep the s0=1
setting so the modem was not answering once in server mode. I then made a
change to output an init string as Windows said it was using Com3:. That
got the modem to answer and most of the time it would work but about ever
4th or 5th call in the middle of files going across I would get an exception
error or the PC would simply reboot which typically is not what you would
like to see during a file transfer.
I set the Zoom backup and no problem.
