No, Larry, it is very illegal--a Federal crime, in fact--to modify
your descrambler to receive programs you didn't pay for.  Check out
the Electronic Communications Privacy Act passed a few years ago, the
same law which makes listening to celluar telephone frequencies on
your scanner illegal.

I'm not going to comment on whether it is /moral/ or not--that's not
appropriate in a technical newsgroup.  But facts is facts...

BTW, hacking your car's engine computer is /also/ illegal--under
anti-pollution laws (at least in this state, and possibly Federally).

But I really doubt whether hacking a device's ROM for your own use
is, in and of itself, illegal.  Not yet, anyway...  (Of course, I'm
not a lawyer, so this is far from being legal advice.)

I wrote, that _V.23_ is not able to switch channels and not that the
protocol used in the Minitels (based on V.23) is not able to do it!
I read the manual for a Discovery 2400A, with this modem you have
to say which direction should be the fast channel _before_ establishing
the connection.

In Germany V.23 will be obsolete in the near future, more and 
more ports to the videotex system change to V.22bis. This
gives you faster transfers and no problem with a slow and a fast channel.

if I remember correctly, one of the options you have in the dialing
directory is whether BS sends BS or DEL, and I seem to recall that this
was set for each phone number in the directory.

I'd be very surprised to learn that this has changed since then, as it
was one of the features that I miss today....  RTFM and the dialing
directory setup for each number, and see if that doesn't help for this
one.

sorry, but I use Zmodem for everything, so I can't help here.....

Most people transmit only already packed stuff with the extensions
.LHA, .ARJ, .ZIP, .Z,... Without a big amount of RAM no modem
will be able to decompress the archive, insert a virus in the
.COM or .EXE (only DOS?) and compress the archive again.
There are some OS out there, where executables have no extension
like .COM or .EXE...

The CD, TR, RD and SD-LEDs are not controlled by firmware, they are directly
connected (via a 74LS244 acting only as a driver) to the RxD and TxD 
lines coming from the RS-232. The OH-LED is normally connected directly
to the OH-Relay. I don't know if this is true for all
modems, but for all Modems I have seen yet.

Hello,

	I wonder where or how much is enough for buffering.
	e.g. the FOSSIL driver has transfer buffer, Telix
	has buffer, under Windows environment, it has COMxBuffer.

	Which one should I enable? All? Is it redunant?

    As I understand it, Adaptive Speed Leveling (ASL) is USR's proprietary
fall forward/back protocol which is different from the CCITT standard.
It is supposed to renegotiate speedshifts/retraining quicker than the
standard, and allows an asymmetrical renegotiation of speed. I don't know
how the modems go about deciding which direction gets the higher speed
on a noisy line, but I would guess the direction with the heavier traffic
at any one moment does.  This could provide quite an advantage on a bad
line, assuming that the modem at the other end can do ASL too.

   If I seem tentative about what I've said above, it's because the
modem manuals are not too specific on any of this, and the phone
"techs" seem to be out of their league as soon as you deviate from their
top-ten list of frequently asked questions.  (Which is about par for
every tech line you call these days.)

Now, I would like to known exactly which were spotted precisely.

I'm willing to collect replies from Supra (fax v32bis) owners that I will

The most important thing I would like to know is what kind of modem (brand,

   AEG Modicon makes a line of Programmable Controllers (if you call ladder

   their LAN called MODBUS.  The specifications should be available from
   them for a small fee.

Maybe the modems to which you're connecting don't support Trellis modulation?

I quite frequently get the V.42LAPM display [indicating LAP-M is active], 
which oddly enough isn't mentioned in the manual.  [I say oddly 'cos I usually

DosFax has had other problems - font spacing is one.  Perhaps there are 
other bugs to be ironed out - I don't know.

Is it a SendFAX modem, or full Send/Receive - that would explain the 
inability to answer.  I assume, however, that it won't do anything else.

All I know is that a friend of mine needed a patched version of WinFax Pro

Alas, that's about it for my knowledge, I'm afraid.

It works same way like WinFax, but it's more stable and there is a network-

I'm just looking for the FAQs about the fax.
If anybody could point me in the right direction, I would appreciate it.

I have a Nuvotel 24/96 faxmodem.  I am fairly satisfied with it except for
one thing - the packaging led me to believe that it implemented MNP2-5 and
V-42/V42.bis in hardware.  They even went so far as to state that it supported
an extended MNP AT command set.  It turns out that the compression/error
correction protocols are implemented in software, not hardware.  That ties
me to their comm. program (QL2fax).  I argued these points with a person
in their marketing organization to no avail.  He seemed to think that there
was nothing wrong with the package, but talking to one of the technical
people, he indicated that "yes indeed there are no extended MNP5 AT commands
implemented on the board".  I bought it because it was inexpensive, and it
was still inexpensive even for implementing the protocols in software.  

I would contact Nuvotel to verify functionality of the faxmodem you are
interested in if it seems to be selling for some
outlandish price (I think 14,400/9600 faxmodems with V42/V42.bis and MNP5
in hardware are still selling for over $200 (U.S) these days (internal AT bus).
You might want to compare the price to the Boca Research model with the 
same specs.

I recently bought a SupraFax modem, and the fax software I have (BitFax)
does not work. I need recs for PD, shareware, or low-cost commercial fax
software, C source code that I could compile under DOS or Coherent even 
better.

txia,
Timothy.
