Sometimes my zyxel omni refuses to connect with all modems except another
zyxel (U1496, U336, Omni, Elite). By 'refuses' I mean that in fact the modems
connect, but with no error correction protocol :(((
To fix the problem I usually turn the power off/on.
Yesterday it happened again and only points/nodes with zyxel modems could get
their mail...
P.S. This happens with any firmware (1.12, 1.14, 1.16, 1.18, 1.18b, 1.19)
With best wishes, Eugene.

Well it was not clearly written, that's why I corrected it. When someone asks
for an init, they normally understand it as the init string they use for
their terminal program. A better term for your suggestion would have been a
SETUP string.:)
Anyway, as long as we agree on the principle of NOT including any &W commands
in an INIT, there is northing more to argue about.
Have a nice day.:)
