(usr-tc) Binding 2 ISDN channels
by Steve Cobb 05 Jun '00

05 Jun '00

Anyone know how to bind two 64k ISDN channels to one 128k connection? Some of the "virtual ISP's" will only offer 64k connections in my area and I need to be able to offer 128k to customers. I'm using RadiusNT to authenticate and can offer customers two separate accounts with different userids but I need to bind them to one. Thanks for the help.

(usr-tc) tcs 4.0 snmp trap weirdity
by Mike Andrews 05 Jun '00

05 Jun '00

Every time someone screws up their password dialing in, I'm getting an SNMP trap. I can't find the setting to disable it. My first guess was "disable snmp authentication traps", but that's for failed SNMP queries (wrong community name), not failed Radius logins. Anyone else find where this is buried yet? (This didn't happen on beta code from what I can remember.)

(usr-tc) TCM - "Delete Database Error"
by Kevin Benton 02 Jun '00

02 Jun '00

Can anyone offer suggestions on how I can resolve an issue on my Win95 computer which I have uninstalled TCM, deleted c:\usrsuite, then reinstalled and I still have chassis in my chassis list which I can not modify or delete? I've looked in registry for the community names, the chassis names, the IP addresses, etc. and I just can't find where in the world TCM is getting its data from. I've also looked in the ini files and still couldn't locate the information.

Re: (usr-tc) And you thought you were frustrated with 3COM

I have 8 Ascend Max 4xxx units in place in multiple POPs and they work great. You may hear moans and groans about their menu interface, but you can telnet to the box and manage everything--users, routing, modems, T1's. I have three POP's each with a single MAX 4xxx--2 PRI's or CT1's plugged in for dial-up, one fract T1 plugged in for Frame Relay backhaul to our main POP--no seperate router, hub, etc.--you can set them up like a "POP in a box". I think the quality of the V.90 code has already been mentioned--it's very good. If I were opening a new POP tommorrow, I'd install an Ascend Max 4xxx (I think I just saw a post with a few used ones fully configured for $6500). Just my $0.02.

(usr-tc) To TC or not to TC
by Steve Cobb 01 Jun '00

01 Jun '00

Hi all, We are a new ISP that is having a ton of problems with our USR TC equipment. We have two pops, one tc with 3 DSPs and one with 2. We are at the point of adding another DSP to each tc but as I said we are having a ton of problems. Sprint is our telco and they have no expertise with tc. Right now, we have been having problems for 10 DAYS! Our trunks mysteriously turn off until and our available modems slowly drop off. So my question is, what is the best hardware to switch to? I like the features of the usr tc, but we have no support. 3COM has been no help. I'm looking at going to an Ascend/Lucent product but I don't know which one. I would like the same manageability that the tc has. Any suggestions would be most helpfully. Of course, I need something that is x2 and ISDN ready.

(usr-tc) Mac & TC
by jeff.binkley＠asacomp.com 01 Jun '00

01 Jun '00

Everyone, We continue to struggle with certain MAC computers connecting to our TC racks. The struggle is often on older MACs (prior to version 8) which don't always come with a browser and sometimes not even a PPP stack. Our latest problem child is a Mac Quadra 610 with 7.1 on it . I am wodering what folks are doing to provide software to MAC customers. We have a CDROM burner and we have the HyCD software which supposedly burns MAC CDROMs ( we downlaod the software off of the Internet and then burn the CDs) but we have had limited success with this. What are others doing to deal with the MACs ?
