assistant: following up a message from Martin Schiller to Warren Zatwarniski:
I just flashed with the 1.44-12 and set s191=126 and got 33.6 between my two
SFMs and a couple of 31200 connects with downlinks. But I'm afraid that the
line quality in this area isn't all that the telco would have had me believe.
When I dropped the s191 setting to 124 I was able to force a 31200 connect
with my NEC, and it had so many errors that the CPS rate dropped to about
1700. According to the changes text file included, the s191 had been disabled
in the 1.44-09 version, which is most likely why Patricks suggestion to
adjust it, earlier, had no effect on the connects.
I'm happy!

When your modem is calling another, your modem will respond with "Ringing"
for every ring that it takes the other end to answer.

Does your modem retrain upwards after a couple of seconds?
My ISP is over 100 miles away and I do get 31.2's with him, and when I get
less than a 28.8 connect it does shift up fairly quickly. I've yet to see a
28.8 connect shift up to something higher though. (unfortunately).... I'm
beginning to wonder if it's not a problem with the ROM....

What if you don't issue that AT cmd, and/or don't power down?
What will happen?  The old ROM has already been overwritten.  It's gone.
It can't still possibly be in place.

Additional notes:
Receving faxes should be OK, (when starting GPfax without opening the serial
port, and let GPfax come up via a script started from a FidoNet

This problem also occures with the latest NON-Beta ROM image ! (as found on

Write your reply.

assistant: Howdy Patrick, how's it going? I was wondering, the last upgrade I did was
from the VFC to the V34, which I got under the sysop deal. Supra sent me the
NEW modem and then I sent back (Thanks to Supra) via Fed Ex my modem back.
Now if and when this deal is offered for the 33.6 upgrade and I will have to
get a new data pump I assume, as when I do an ATi10, there is NO 201, in fact
the higest # is 190. Will supra be so kind as to send it the same way, so the
BBS does not go down at all? And if they do, the modem will have the lastest
roms installed already, correct? As it seems useless to me to call the Supra
BBS and get those beta roms, as they would be of no use with a rev 4 pump,
right? Do you have any idea how much the upgrade will cost, the same as the
jump from VFC to V34? Thanks for the info, see ya Patrick.

assistant: Its a FD problem. The next release should correct it. Just to lock
 only at 38400. if you go higher, you will get alot of retries and errors.

assistant: Hi Warren
 I noted the same thing as you. I cannot now use these commands AT)M1
 and AT:E0 (since i upgrade to the -12 version)
 An update should coming soon i guess.
* EQM                  = 20      <- Smaller is, better is
* RX level             = -24dBm
* TX level             = -10dBm
* Far echo delay       = 1ms
* Far echo level       = -50dBm
* Pre-emphasis filter  = 7
* Pre-Coding           = TX 0 RX 1
* Shaping              = TX 0 RX 1
* Non-linear encoding  = TX 1 RX 1
* Trellis mapping      = 64-4D
* SNR                  = 38dB
* Normalized band width= 150Hz-3825Hz   <- Wide range
* Symbol rate          = 3200           <- Look at this one
* TX carrier           = low
* RX carrier           = low
 I could get easily 33.6 *but* because of the symbol rate is wrong (i mean
it should indicate 3429 instead) results are i get into a dead signal when
he
modem attemp to connect.
