- Hi. I have a quick question. I run a BBS with Maximus 2.01 and I have a
- new SupraFAXModem... (By the way: IT WORKS GREAT!!!)... with one small
- exception.
-
- When people log on at 2400 baud, which most do, the BBS thinks that
- they're logged on at 38400. I can only assume that this is the modem to
- computer speed. I have tried several times to use the W2 option but when
- someone connects at 2400 all they get on their end is a screen full of ascii
- characters (most of which are Greek Alpha's apparently). Can anyone suggest
- a course of action for me to take? I wouldn't worry about it at all except
- that the BBS allows users to download huge files which they don't have time
- left to download because it thinks they're logged on at 38.4k.
-
- My init string is: AT&F2E0M0V1S0=0
-
- BTW: For the person who will, inevitably, say "Why don't you just store
- that in the modem using the AT&Wn command?"... I tried it... It won't work
- at all... even if I use the EXACT same init string as above, the same result
- (GARBAGE!) follows.
-
- However, I would like to say that my modem has worked FLAWLESSLY.
- I admit that I am not exactly a heavy duty user, but I have called my share
- of LD sites with high speed modems and have had no problems what-so-ever.
- This is a GOOD modem. If you're in the market... buy it!
