Number of rings for Incoming Connections

[Tim Rude]

Under Network Connections, I've created an 'Incoming Connections' item to
allow dialing in to my computer via the modem. However, I can't find
anywhere to specify how many rings to answer on. Presently it answers after
1-2 rings. I'd like to set it to ring more times before having the computer
auto-answer. Anyone know how to set the ring count?

Umm, ATS0=2 if I recall correctly will be 2 rings ATS0=4 will make 4
rings. That would be Hayes compatible, your miliage may vary.

Under Windows NT this registry entry controlled it. I'm not sure about
Windows 2000.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\RasMan\Parameters
DWORD NumberOfRings

Thanks. I'll check it out.

You may need to add the entry if it doesn't already exist.
