MODEM HELP

  • How can I improve my connections ? ( 56k Modems Only )


This page is ONLY for the advanced user.  If you have any questions about this page, CLICK HERE.


USRobotic (Telepaths) Modems     S32=98

  x2 on, V.90 off x2 off, V.90 on Both off Both on*
Sportster** S32=66 S32=34 S32=98 S32=2
Courier S58=32 S58=1 S58=33 S58=0

To decrease the speed of the modem and disable 56k use the following string :

&F1&U1&N16S32=98

U1 = the floor connect speed at 2400 meaning the modem knows not to go lower than that.

N16 = the ceiling connect speed or the highest the modem will connect at as described below.

16= 33,600
8 = 14,400
3 = 2400 ** this is the lowest you can go - from this setting its line noise.

* Using AT&F1 in the init string automatically enables both protocols.
**Non-U.S. Robotics modems that use x2 generally use the same commands as the Sportster
