- Does anybody have idea about the following problems I am encountering with
- a BOCA 14.4 fax/modem. I installed it in my 386/40 as COM2 (I have a serial
- port as COM1), ATI Stereo/FX card and Microsoft Bus Mouse. Using Procomm+
- I was able to initially connect at 9600 to a couple of BBS's but the characters
- got garbled occasionally. Now the modem will not respond to any AT command
- at any speed (ATZ etc.) although it will dial out using ATDTnnnnnnn. Once the
- remote modem answers no connect at any speed. About the only change I made was
- to add in a long initialisation string BOCA recommends if trying to connect
- to a HST Dual Standard (nothing special in the string). I would like to even
- set the modem back to factory defaults if I could.
- WinfaxPro also reports comms errors
- with the modem. I would like to call BOCA Tech Support but I don't fancy
- the long hold on an international call.
- So if anybody out there has any ideas I would really appreciate hearing them.
- I've got a RMA to return the card but I would rather know that it was
- something silly I had done.

- Thanks
