- : I had the same problem connecting Motorolas 326x V.34 and ZyXels V.32bis.
- : I believe that's because both V.34 and V.32bis protocols have adaptive
- : features (i.e. before establishing connection they try to evaluate the
- : line quality and choose proper transmission parameters).
- : As a result, while Motorola ("V.34 Auto" Mode) was trying to quess the
- : required protocol, ZyXel made attempts to optimize its parameters and
- : that "duel of intellects" lasted till timeout. When I put Motorola
- : into "V.32bis Auto" mode, all became ok.

- I had problems calling from my Motorola Codex 3265 Fast V.34 modem to
- the Motorola ISG bbs, even though both modems were the 3265 with revision
- 7.1 firmware.
-
- The solution was for Telstra to fix their echo cancellers, both by a
- firmware upgrade of the Coherent echo cancellers and tweaking the
- Alcatel S12 built-in echo cancellers so that PLAIN 2100 Hz tones
- *reliably* activate the echo canceller, even on noisy lines, and that
- 2100 Hz tones WITH PHASE REVERSALS did not activate the echo cancellers,
- even on noisy lines, and that the echo canceller only cut out when there
- was a loss of energy in *both* directions (V.34 always has energy in at
- least one direction).
-
- By reliably, I also meant that the once the echo canceller cut in, it
- stayed active until the G.165 loss of energy in both directions timeout.
-
- I can now connect to the Motorola ISG bbs at 26400/24000 bps from Australia.
