Park Ranger Tl Posts: 2 | Posted - 12/30/2001 11:37:13 PM I bought a V92 URS Ext modem (USR5686D) for my dad's Christmas present and this modem continues to lock up when trying to down load. Installed the USR ControlCenter program and when I tried to update the modem with this program, the program locks up. At 1st I figured it was the cable I bought (Belkin 25 to 9 pin), so I went to Radio Shack and purchased a RS-232C cable, (not sure what the C means). Same problem continued . . . I can get on line Okay, but when I try to down load something the modem stops responding and locks up. The only problem I can find in the modem log, states that the "Error-Control is Off or Unknown and Data Compression is Off or Unknown" I went into the ControlCenter and kept changing settings but I still continue to have the same problems, the modem log USR Tech support said the lock ups were the Any Suggestions NPS Back Country Ranger |
v.Richard Tl Posts: 6222 USA | Posted - 12/31/2001 12:03:53 PM Modem "locks up". What does that mean? Your computer still works? The modem is still connected? Does the modem disconnect, or do you disconnect? Check post-call diagnostics using Hyperterminal; You need error correction - controlled by connectoid and modem's .inf file (or init string/extra settings). What connect rate do you get? Try limiting connect speed to lower rate. What firmware version does modem have? Response to ati7 in Hyperterminal. Aloha, |

Bob Starnes Tl Posts: 4360 USA | Posted - 1/1/2002 11:33:27 PM If the modem connects to the ISP but you just can't browse or download anything then it's most likely not a modem problem, check your DUN settings: See http://modemsite.com/56k/connectoid.htm Also check with your ISP to see if you have the correct Primary and Secondary DNS numbers entered, if required.
