Summary: Flow control? Keywords: modem v.32 v.42 flow control Message-ID: <1991Jun10.200056.29446@chinet.chi.il.us> Date: 10 Jun 91 20:00:56 GMT Organization: Chinet - Chicago Public Access UNIX Lines: 8 Over the weekend, I got a Practical Peripherals V.32 V.42 V.42bis modem (at a warehouse sale: wholesale on these babies appears to be about $400). Works just fine, thank-you on my ST so far. I remember some discussion about flow control (or lack of it) with the ST's serial port. Modems like this were 3 times as expensive back then, so I didn't save the messages. What do I have to do? What might go wrong? How do I deal with problems? All this specifically relating to flow control and a fast modem with data compression. Steve saj@chinet.chi.il.us
