With this firmware I'm able to connect around 49333 to several ISPs in my area. ATI11 shows SNR of around 47.5.

After flashing the v.92 firmware:

it is unable to connect at v.92 or fall back to v.90. ATI11 reports an SNR of around 35.

Has anyone else seen anything like this?

thanks

What inf file are you using after the v92 flash

It's on a BSD system so I'm not using an inf file. I've gotten quite cozy with the command Quick Reference Card. Anything in particular I should look for?

Are you using any of the V92 commands?

I've tried with v.92 enabled and disabled via register S58,
and tried various +P settings.
I'm mostly interested in the greater upstream bandwidth and
reduced connect time so I've not tried any of the Caller ID
features yet.
It seems odd that it would not fall back to v.90 when v.92 doesn't work/is disabled. It's almost like they radically changed something in the signal processing that makes v.90 not work.

Or, the new code has new bugs...?

I'd like to see before and after post-call

Since it's a Courier, you should be able to flash the modem back to the V90-only without problem.

If you want V.92 for increased upstream - you can pretty much forget it. Only Patton & 3Com RAS servers support it at all, but the max up to them is around 33k (which is V34 rate) as compared to the V92 spec of 48kbps. The other RAS vendors have pretty much given up on any V92PCM Upstream support in their product at all.

Aloha! Richard.
