  18. : Been using ckermit 5A(191) with BocaModem 14.4 for some time.
  19. : Upgraded to USR Sportster 33600/Fax internal modem and am having
  20. : problems with DIAL command.  Following sequence observed:
  21. : ATQ0H1
  22. : Hangup OK
  23. : Initializing: 17:07:33...
  24. : AT&F1&D2&C1&M4&U7&K3X4
  25. : No response from modem, retrying...
  26. : No response from modem, retrying again...
  27. : No response from modem, retrying again...
  28. : DIAL Failure: 17:07:49: Error initializing modem.
  29. That means it's sending "AT&F1&D2&C1&M4&U7&K3X4" and not getting an OK
  30. (or "0") response.
  31.  
  32. : Now...when running following script:
  33. :      output AT&F1&D2&C1&M4&U7&K3X4\13
  34. :      input 0 OK
  35. :      if failure end 1
  36. :      output ATDT4457100\13
  37. :      :loop
  38. :      input
  39. :      goto loop
  40. : obtain following results:
  41. : AT&F1&D2&C1&M4&U7&K3X4
  42. : OK
  43. : ATDTxxxxxxx
  44. : CONNECT 31200/ARQ/V34/LAPM/V42BIS
  45. : which is normal.
  46. OK, so that means the initialization string is OK.
  47.  
  48. : Setup strings:
  49. : set modem sportster
  50. : set carrier auto
  51. : set port com2
  52. : set speed 115200
  53. :
  54. Are these the same settings you used when you ran the script that
  55. worked?  My first guess would be that the modem isn't autobauding at
  56. 115200 bps.
  57.  
  58. Another possibility is flow control.  What happens if you SET FLOW
  59. NONE prior to dialing, and then SET FLOW RTS/CTS only after the
  60. DIAL command succeeded?
  61.  
  62. If none of that works, I'd suggest replacing your DIAL command with
  63. a macro that dials the modem using the commands that you say work, until
  64. we release the new Kermit for OS/2, hopefully within a few weeks.
