The equipment is as $ follows: $ $ (1) Samsung S-286, with Everex 920 300/1200 baud modem, $ running under PC-DOS 3.2. $ $ (2) Wyse pc286, also with an Everex 920 modem, and running $ under MS-DOS 3.1. $ $ The problem is that when I run MSKERMIT and try to connect to $ the modem (on either machine), I am unable to wake up the $ modem at all.

I have fiddled around with MSKERMIT's local $ echo on/off, but that seems to make no difference. $ $ I suspect some sort of mismatch between MSKERMIT 2.29 and $ the Everex modems, since the other telecomm software I have $ available (Framework II, Bitcom, and KERMIT-MS 2.27) all $ behave properly. $ $ Has anybody run into anything similar, and are there any $ suggested fixes, or...? $ $ Thanks, $ $ --Tom Mandel mandel@kl.sri.com well!mandel This is an acknowledged bug in version 2.29. It is said that it does not work with several internal modems that are clones of the Hayes, including the Everex. The fix is to use version 2.29b or 2.29c or 2.30.
