• Odd problem with Binkleyterm

    From Sean Dennis@1:11/200 to All on Fri Jan 18 09:33:00 2002
    Hello, All.

    I'm running BT 2.60XE (Beta XH7 ntcomm) under OS/2 Warp 4. I just got a "new" US Robotics external Courier v.everything 33.6K modem. It works nicely, but I have an odd problem with BT not being able to initialize the modem.

    I have BT exit out and call Injoy and Injoy calls my ISP to get my BBS mail via
    Internet Rex. After Rex exits, Injoy exits and BT is called back into service,
    the modem refuses to reset. If I exit BT and restart it, the modem will reset.

    Ideas or suggestions?

    Later,
    Sean

    The only time I've had any problem with Bink initializing the modem is when the
    modem is in use. Perhaps your new modem needs a new init string. When I had problems, I put "ATH|" at the start of my init string. It worked.

    Stopping using the modem for Internet mail works better though...:)

    Is that a drop-in replacement for BTPE403, by chance? *adh*

    I have no clue, to be honest. All I've ever done when I've switched operating systems between Windows and OS/2 is just change the exes, the DLLs used and cleared out the flags directory before I restarted with the new version.
