Not sure if this is ontopic, but I'll give it a go anyway ;-) Does anyone know of an init string for Intel HAM based modems that will force them to connect using only V34 ? (That works ?) People on rural lines often can't get reliable connections using V90 or 56Flex, but forcing the modem to use V34 usually makes a huge improvement. For the common Rockwell and Lucent based modems its easy, for example -V90=0S38=0 for LT winmodems and +MS=V34 for most Rockwell based modems. So far I've been totally unable to find a string that actually works for the Intel HAM based modems, and they seem to be worse than other modems when it comes to not falling back automatically on poor lines. (Read: they wont even connect at all on typical rural lines where Lucent/Rockwell modems will at least get some kind of connection, albeit dodgy) Any pointers ? (Sorry if this is offtopic, but I thought it was an issue that most ISP's will have had to deal with at some time or another) Regards, Simon Byrnand iGRIN Internet - To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog
