- I've wondered if anyone else noticed that both Win95 and NT's
- RAS Dialup disable SUPRA 28.8 v.42bis compression (?).
-
- Look in \windows\info\mdmsupra.inf or
- \winnt\system32\ras\modem.inf
-
- You would find that the for SUPRA 28.8/i 'compression_on=%C1'
- This in effect allows only MNP5 and not v.42bis during negotiation.
-
- I change mine to %C3 and saw my NT RAS dialup STATUS
- changed from Compression: NONE to v.42bis when dial in.
- Also noticed that, with v.42bis, the transfer rate increased above
- NT RAS software compression.
