Hi guys.
I don't know what kind of modem demographics your users are dragging in, but here we are drowning in Rockwell HCFs that won't connect to anything with a USR/3Com logo.
We have both Quads and DSP cards, and we are running the _latest_ code. TCS 3.6 with all the fixes. Most of the modem settings are the 3Com defaults.
What are the best way to get these to get these things to work? Get an Ascend?
The latest code made this all better for us as well. I must say that I've had an easier time with the Rockwells than I have with the 3Com winmodems. Now those are pieces of junk! As a last ditch I sometimes just disable the v.90 code and wait for a new software release... -- Brice Ligget Chief Operations Officer Two Alpha Net is a complete Internet Service Provider based in Billings Montana.

What are you calling the latest code? I think I am running the latest stable code on my 3COM TC Hiper, but maybe I missed something. I can not get those HCFs to connect worth a crap about 40% of the time. I mean - they just don't connect at all. Of course, we have noise in the phone lines in about 30% of the county I serve.

Merry Christmas All, Instead of posting the same old Rudolf song for the third year in a row, I made up a new one: G.Lite Christmas I'm dreaming of a G.lite Christmas Just like the ones in old Frisco Where the phone poles glisten and users listen To hear Ma Bells in the show. I'm streaming a G.lite Christmas With every sector read and write May your nets be fibre and bright And may all your Christmases be G.lite.. Happy Holidays!

Most of our HCF problems have been client-side code. We've rarely had problems with them after updating their code. http://www.808hi.com/56k/rockhcf.htm is about the best HCF resource I'm aware of. -- Kirk Mitchell-General Manager mitch@keyconn.net Keystone Connect Unlock Your World Altoona, PA 814-941-5000 http://www.keyconn.net - To unsubscribe to usr-tc, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe usr-tc" in the body of the message.
