- Hi,
-
- I'm using a Global Village Teleport Gold with interSLIP on a Mac Quadra
- 610. I recently upgraded to 2.5.5 of their software, and have been having
- some minor problems since then.
-
- With v 2.08b, if the v.42bis setting was checked in the Teleport Control
- Panel, and the Init Modem checkbox was checked, the modem would connect to
- the Pitt Modem pool and show a check next to v.42bis in the staus menu.
- This, I assumed, meant the modem was connected and v.42bis compression was
- activated.
-
- Since I upgraded to 2.5.5, this is no longer the case. Even though the
- Control Panel stting is the same, the staus menu no longer shows v.42bis
- as active, and transfer times are quite a bit slower.
-
- InterSLIP uses a dialing script (in this case a modified ARA 1.0 dialing
- script) to negotiate the connection with our modem pool. in this script
- there are settings written to the modem. Here is the relevant pieces of
- the script:

- What I would like to do is modify this script so that v.42bis compression
- is enabled.
