- I had similar problems getting a US Robotics V.32bis modem to work. Finally
- solved it with a combination of tricks. The biggest problem with incoming
- logins was with the modem "chattering" with the login program. This
- was fixed so that the modem only sends status messages (like OK, etc) when
- in originate mode. This is set in the USR by using "atq2e0" (you also
- don't want echo on). I had a lot of trouble using the port bi-directionally
- and finally solved that by writing a new dialer script:
- USRV32 =,-, "" ATQ0E0M1V1&M4\r OK\r\n \eATDT\T\r\c CONNECT
-
- Lastly, you will want to program the modem so that it connects to the
- computer at a FIXED rate. I don't think there is a standard way to
- do this...on the Robotics it is "at&b1" which causes the modem to stay
- at the rate of the last outgoing call and you have to remember to
- dial out manually at the baud rate you are going to run ttymon at.
-
- Since making these changes, the modem has worked very well at 38400
- baud...both incoming and outgoing. I often run SLIP over it at
- that rate with absolutely no problems.
