Re: USR Modem Hangs Intermittantly
Hi
I bought a USR 33.6 sportster (same modem as is giving problems, only
the firmware is different) that had exactly the problem you all
describe.
The init string mentioned by one poster sets one of the registers (s12)
to 0. The command to do this is: ATS12=0 It is said to help _some_ of
the modems with this problem. This didn't help me at all.
I mailed USR (support@usr.com) who isuued an RMA for the return of the
modem. They replaced a chip, and the modem now works fine. Turnaround
was maybe 2 weeks.
Hope this helps.
