12-16-93 Prodigy AOL
(the following assumes the modem is working otherwise)
If you are using Prodigy or America OnLine with a high speed modem the
try putting &q6 into the string. You do NOT want to have a DT at the end (
&q6DT ), you should try with an AT as the prefix ( AT&q6 ). If this still
doesn't work, on the 9600 line use &q0s37=9n0 or on the 2400 line
&q0s37=6n0 which causes a 'direct' connect rather than using buffering in
the modem.
Here's a string to try. AT&F&Q6&K0E0
If you are unsure if you are connecting, then try calling the local
Prodigy/AOL number from terminal mode of a regular telecom program (like
Telix, Procomm, MTEZ, Comit, Bitcom etc). Then you will SEE a 'CONNECT'
message if you do connect. This will eliminate a modem problem, perhaps the
Prodigy you have has an fault in it. Type AD&Q6DTnumber to test, or
insert the other strings above before the DT.
