users is having with his Supra 14.4 LC and this only happens when he plays
Hack&Slash an onl-ine game on my BBS. I was thinking maybe one of his s
registers might need a bit of tweaking. Here's what he wrote to me:

Thanks for taking the time to post all the information from your setup.
It is too much for me to digest online so I have captured it to a log
file, will study it and try your setting on my system. I forgot to
mention that I am also using Microsoft WFWG 3.11 operating system and the
Dialer and Winsock that came with Netscape Personal Edition. What
operating system, ect. are you using?
BTW, I could not make out from the tag line or the Origin line where you
are located. That does not look like a USA telephone number.

The problem is this...   You do not have the correct revision ROM image

It does a checksum, and then cancels the transfer.
First obtain 12014412.lha from the Supra BBS...
In it you will find two ROM images, flash the upgd1200.sb7, and then the

fine.

That can be made to happen "always" for the replacement of the OK message.
The only problem is I forgot how to do it. It doesn't hurt the modem, but you

Whew, there must be some serious lag in the net!  I loaded 1.440-22 about
a week ago.  It did fix the RT bug for me.
I also had some trouble loading the beta flash.  It turned out that I was
using the "PNS" macro in an old version of {Commo}.  Running {Commo} v7.0
with Fred's original macros uploads the flash just fine.  If anyone does
this, remember to use the "S" protocol, not the "X" protocol.  The "X"
protocol is 1K Xmodem.

I've noticed the following when I have unsuccesful connections :
- when a connection fails (drop to 300), the modem begins to display
connection rates (ie T34 28 R34 28) about 10 seconds before sending the
CONNECT 57600 message.
- AT%Q2 after a failure shows GSTN cleardown as the disconnect reason.
Here is a dump after a failure :

assistant: Hi Patrick,
Following up a message from David Hays to Patrick Moore:
I found out a little more info that is really strange.
I have two lines at the house, a BBS and a voice line.
When my SupraFaxModem 28.8 is hooked up to my BBS line, it will not
disconnect the line when either dropping DTR or sending the ATH0 string.
When my SupraFaxModem 28.8 is hooked up to my voice line, it does disconect
the line when it recieves the ATH0 string.
My SupraSonic 33.6 will disconnect either line when recieving the ATH0
ring.
I tested it using a comm program by connecting a telephone to the modem and
then sending the ATH1 string to the modem to take the line off-hook.  I
waited until I got the obnoxoius beeps then sent the ATH0 string.  I then
could pick up the reciever of the phone and see if I was still getting beeps,
or a dial-tone.
The SupraSonic worked fine.  The SupraFaxModem failed to disconnect the line
on every test with the BBS line, and did just fine on the voice line.  I
tested it using both comm ports to make sure it wasn't a port related
oblem.
I'm stumped... any ideas?  Could the telephone line be the problem?  Why
would one modem work on both lines and another modem only work on one?
Help!
