modem question and modem string wanted
In ,
Greg typed on Mon, 09 Nov 2009 11:00:44 -0500: The reason I want the string, there is no volume control for this modem in 98se. (Yes, I looked, grey out) Hi Greg! Did you check the sound mixer? The control might be in there. Otherwise it doesn't look good. Was there a speaker mounted on the modem card? -- Bill Gateway MX6124 ('06 era) - Windows XP SP2 |

Some 56xx modems were controllerless, others had a hardware controller. I'm fairly certain that _no_ ISA-based modems were controllerless. The best modems were in fact ISA-based, because they always had on-board processors and did all the communication work themselves, as opposed to controller-less modems (which as a rule were are all PCI-based modems). The OP is advised to remove the PCI modem and get XP to recognize the ISA modem. His anemic system doesn't need extra load of dealing with a controller-less modem. Controller-less modems work fine. It is the ISA modem that does not in xp. I tried everything (Short of reinstalling xp). xp didn't reorganized the modem. My system is a Compaq desktop ep pro series Greg Greg, I gave you the ATI commands so you could find out exactly what this modem is, firmware, etc.. It might help to solve your issues if you were to provide the group with that information, and would certainly end the debate on controllerless or not, and what potential software you might need. It sure would help to know.. MEB., That reply was for 98guy. Not you. To All, My computer specs again. 5 drive bays. 2 Memory slots-on board P3 500 mhz cpu 5 pci slots or 4 pci slots and 1 agp slot. 2 ISA slots Two USB 1.0/1.1-on board slots One printer port -on board slots Two serial ports-on board slots One ps2 keyboard port-on board slot One ps2 mouse port on-board slot On board sound cards (Still works but using the ISA sound card, I bought for dos game compatibility) Trying to the fix the confusion. My previous modem was a pci modem. Which worked fine until it quit and it was a winmodem as well. The modem, I am using now, is an ISA modem. This is only temporary. Tell my pci modem comes in. Hopefully, with drivers for both 98se and xp. I will possible keep the isa modem installed, because it works with puppy Linux. Greg Okay, Greg, continue to talk about it in THEORY, or supply what the group actually needs, the MODEM device ID, firmware, etc., which comes via running the ATI* commands which I provided using a terminal program. The AT&V information would also be valuable. [those commands were shown with a small i to avoid confusion with a 1] Unless you're careful in your purchase, the new PCI modem will be controllerless... perhaps you would like some suggestions on what to potentially look for, for cross-platform compatibility, or have you already purchased the new modem? Your confusing the issue and me. I already ordered the pci modem, it suppose to have driver for both 98se and xp. On the ISA modem, I am using, it is temporary for 98se. The reason I want the string, there is no volume control for this modem in 98se. (Yes, I looked, grey out) The other reasons, it was not showing the DTE speed. You could of been simple and said put this string in like this AT+W2 L0 Greg Come on Greg, that still supplies nothing from which to work. We need the actual modem DETAILS obtainable via the ATI* commands I gave you. And as I explained, the command should be placed together with no spaces or comma or anything else. So what it would like using your supplied string would be: ATW2L0 - but that leaves it unwritten permanently, so add &W1 or &W2 depending upon which profile the MAIN string is using [either as shown or available via the AT&V command]. {&V - Display Current Configuration and Stored Profiles.} (&Wn - Store Current Configuration) If this is your desired string, then add it or modify the existing, if possible, to the main string as W2L0 -- MEB http://peoplescounsel.org/ref/windows-main.htm Windows Info, Diagnostics, Security, Networking http://peoplescounsel.org The "real world" of Law, Justice, and Government ___--- |

finger to keyboard and composed: Your confusing the issue and me. I already ordered the pci modem, it suppose to have driver for both 98se and xp. If you post the modem's ATIn responses, then we would know whether it is a controller-based type, in which case XP would need no drivers, only an INF file. In Win98SE, go to Control Panel - Modems - Diagnostics, select your modem, and select More Info. On the ISA modem, I am using, it is temporary for 98se. The reason I want the string, there is no volume control for this modem in 98se. (Yes, I looked, grey out) The reason there is no volume control is because you have installed the modem with the wrong INF file, probably a standard Windows INF. Once again, if you post the ATIn responses, or better still, post the numbers on the modem chips, then we will be able to help you. The other reasons, it was not showing the DTE speed. You could of been simple and said put this string in like this AT+W2 L0 Greg In Extra Settings you don't need the "AT" prefix. Spaces are OK, though. The appropriate Wn command is W2, not +W2. - Franc Zabkar -- Please remove one 'i' from my address when replying by email. |

The control might be in there. Otherwise it doesn't look good. Was there a speaker mounted on the modem card? I found my old drivers for windows 98se. That eliminated the sound problem The correct AT codes It L0 for low volume is M0 for muting the speaker. 0=number zero This is what I have in the extra settings and it is working. AT W2 or I could of used this AT M0 W2 some cirrus modem may require this AT &F M0 W2 (There) is a space between the T and & symbol. Greg |

And my favorite comm program QModem [IIRC] did require the AT. Other used or tested may have required or not if the program auto sent AT. But yeah, again I suppose you're talking Windows settings... I wonder where these are actually being entered. DUN maybe?
