(usr-tc) ISDN Problem with Netgear RH348
by Steve Coleman 23 Sep '99

23 Sep '99

Can't seem to get this unit working in any configuration. We have are using the HiperArc and HiperDSP with the latest code on both. The connection will establish and work for a few minutes, but it keeps resetting, usually after 3-5 minutes. This happens if the Netgear calls in using NAT, calls in using a routed subnet, or if the HiperARC calls the Netgear. Idle timers on both ends have been set to 0. Any ideas?

(usr-tc) ActionTec Call waiting modem?
by Stainforth, Matthew 23 Sep '99

23 Sep '99

Has anybody tried this call-waiting modem? Supposedly it'll allow you to answer a call and talk for up to 7 seconds without dropping the connection to the ISP. I'm a little skeptical but I'm willing to entertain the thought. There's a brief promo at http://www.actiontec.com/products/modems/cwi/index.html Matthew - To unsubscribe to usr-tc, send an email to "majordomo(a)xmission.com" with "unsubscribe usr-tc" in the body of the message.

(usr-tc) Upgrading DSPs
by K Mitchell 23 Sep '99

23 Sep '99

Finally got my new DSP problems straightened out for the most part. Original card was bad, swapped with a replacement. Everything appears to be fine except I can't get the type from STATIC to DYNAMIC, seems to be working ok though so I'm not sure what difference it makes. On to my main point, I'm currently running 1.2.60 on all cards and 4.1.59-6 ARC code. On the DSPs, should I go with 1.2.37 or move up to 2.0.81? Any problems with either? Same question on the ARC, is 4.2.31-1 worth bumping up to?

So far so good with the very manly 4.2.32 code. I've got 4 of 'em on this rev of code for a week and no problems. I'm not using the extremely manly OSPF yet (subject of most commentary so far), using the un-manly rip->OSPF gateway of yore yet.

Rebooting does seem to correct the DSPs for a while but the problem always creeps back. They always go in adjacent pairs because one controller controls two adjacent modems. As fate would have it, the very first two modems in my largest hunt group went freaky the other day. I haven't noticed whether the problem creeps back on the very same two modems every time or if it's random though since I always just busy out the trunks and wait until I have another reason to reboot the card, by which time I've long since forgotten which two modems they were :) On Thursday, September 23, 1999 3:44 PM, K Mitchell [SMTP:mitch@keyconn.net] wrote: > At 03:28 PM 9/23/99 -0300, "Stainforth, Matthew" > <MatthewS(a)staff.brunnet.net> wrote: > > > Does rebooting the DSP take care of the modems?

I tried this on a HiperARC card and it still does not seem to work.

Speaking of firmware problems, has anyone heard if 3Com is almost ready to release a version that fixes that stupid "modems go freaky in pairs" problem? I have 6 channels busied out due to this at the moment. I know there was some bleeding edge code that helped but I'm less than enthusiastic about running that on my production boxes.
