I hope this is the correct place to ask this--i could not find one
more suitable.
I'm using Windows XP Home SP2 with a Conexant SoftV92 Data Fax Modem.
It's Buffer is set to High (which is default), No initialize Commands.
I'm on a separate phone line. no one has this number except the phone
company. i do not have call waiting. I have connected a phone, and i
never get any rings. I get connected after a bunch of chirping and
worbbling (how's that for a description?? ) at either 50 or 53.2kb
on 2 of my ISP's phone numbers and 45kb on the 3rd. I am connected to
Highstream.net, they say at present they do not disconnect any
connections, unless there is no activity for 20 minutes. I'm sitting
here getting streaming data and surfing and almost to the minute, at 4
hours it disconnects, weekday, week night and weekends. this happens
on 2 separate computers with 2 different phone lines--i tried the
regular phone line last weekend.
There are no settings for the modem that has anything to do with
disconnecting at 4 hours---in fact the Idle time setting is set to
"Never". Is there an Initialize Command i could try to keep this from
happening?
Is there some "overload" condition which could confuse the driver such
that it hangs up---like cumulative errors exceeding a certain level?
if so where is that setting?
Maybe i should try a NetZero line, although that's a long distance
call rather than a local call.
The phone company said there is nothing they would do to disconnect my
line.
Please help,
thanks,
ron
