It worked just fine before the upgrade, so that's what I want... The problem is the BBS can no longer hang the modem up after a call... This is a hardware feature, and I use a very special modem cable to make this happen... BTW, this is the only 288 I have... The others are the new Diamond 33.6's, and they function the same way, using the same cable...

Hey! I have several new modems :) 2 are 56k and are mainly for me to websurf, thou one will work as a BBS modem when I'm not surfing the net. I noticed that my Trapdoor INIT string errors off now even though this modem is from the same manufacturer as my others (28.8k & 33.6k SupraFAXModems and the new 56k SupraExpress 56e). Both modems are FAX capable... Anyone know why the new modems would have a problem with: MODEMINIT "~~~~AT&F2W2M0E1+MS=11,1,300,33600+FCR=1+FAA=1+FLID=\"443-4187\"~|" --- DLG Pro v1.16/DLGMail v2.63 * Origin: Awesome Ami BBS, 512-443-4187, 33.6k, (1:382/311.0) --------------- FIDO MESSAGE AREA==> TOPIC: 267 SUPRA MODEMS Ref: F1T00000 Date: 01/23/98 From: ELDEN FENISON Time: 06:33am \/To: DALE FRAMELI (Read 1 times) Subj: SupraExpress 56e & Trapdo -> Anyone know why the new modems would have a problem with: -> -> MODEMINIT -> "~~~~AT&F2W2M0E1+MS=11,1,300,33600+FCR=1+FAA=1+FLID=\"443-4187\"~|" Not specifically sure about the Supra 56k, but the Motorola 56k that I bought was a Class 1 fax modem, as opposed to my SupraFaxModem which was Class 2.0. If this is true of your Supra 56k, then the fax commands are radically different.

[----------^^^^ you said the above ^^^^-----------] No problem, I looked and found that 12014426.zip (from Supra bbs) should be the latest release. Maybe others and myself might have explained you'll probably need some rev. level/release to accept this update or rather to go backward should this not work. I use my comm. pgm. to use a flash update as using Windows version or other method may hang up the update process, IMHO. try it -_-_-Bill --- * Origin: Bordertown/TEXMEX bbs (419)862-3423 (1:234/43) --------------- FIDO MESSAGE AREA==> TOPIC: 267 SUPRA MODEMS Ref: F1U00002 Date: 01/21/98 From: STEVEN LEEMAN Time: 06:14pm \/To: JAMIE CORRIGAN (Read 1 times) Subj: Weekly Supra Sysop Deal Info Wednesday January 14 1998 07:00, Jamie Corrigan wrote to ALL: JC> SYSOP.TXT Rev 8.0 (DXM 4/25/97) JC> 90500003-001 SupraFAXModem 33.6 Ext.
