-
- I just bought a new Sportster 28.8 internal modem. After inserting
- to a slot where my 2400 modem used to be, I tried all the communication
- softwares I used with the old modem, and none of them works?!
-
- I did not change the factory setting on the modem, so it was configured
- as COM2 IRQ3. I used MIRR II and pcplus with baud rate of 2400. Both
- softwares could not connect even I heard the handshaking noise (carrier
- connection signal?), and both timed out.
-
- I also tried the terminal program in the window (WG3.11), it connected
- alright at both 2400 and 9600 but will disconnect after I logged into
- the remote machine for about a minute with the following error message
- NO CARRIER
-
- I also installed the QuickLink II FAX coming along with the modem but
- experienced same problem as the window terminal program and got the
- same NO CARRIER message.
-
- I also tried to set the jumpers on modem to use COM4 but got the same
- results.
-
- I am supposed to use this modem to replace the outgoing 2400 modem and
- my fax machine. Any help and hint will be very much appreciated. Please
- e-mail me directly to yy@mda.ca.
-
- Thanks in advance.
