Hi there,
I have recently installed a Cisco AS5350 and connected to 2 R2 lines (this was an upgrade from a 3Com Total Control Chassis - phew!!) I am currently running Cisco 5350 IOS Version 12.2(2)XB2 with SPE firmware version 0.8.5.0. It seems to be accepting connections from most modems except some USB modems like the MECER USB modem.
The connections from these modems are characterised by prolonged hand-shaking with no ultimate connection. Typical errors include "...Modem did not respond.." (even after the handshaking has taken place!!!) We have tried with a large number of analogue telephone lines with the same result. Interestingly enough, when I use a USR USB modem, connection is established without a problem. Is there a setting I have missed on AS5350 or on the modem that is causing this? Is it a compatibility problem?
Welcome to the world of Cisco. This is why TCM was invented. :)
