Re: (usr-tc) v.42bis problems
Hi Mike, This is a hardware failure on that specific card. There are 2 separate processors for the data path (v42bis processing occurs in this portion of the card). Each one of these processors controls half of the modems on the card. You likely have some sort of failure in the first processor... which is why you only see the problem on the first 12 ports. Hope this helps.

Any idea what hardware revision the card was? 0.49 maybe? I'm just trying to see if there's any pattern to these at all...
No idea, I didn't keep record on what revision the card was. It very well could be 0.49 (why are the hardware revisions 0.xx, are these beta release cards? :-) as the others I installed at the same time are.

OK... interesting... question though: What else runs on that CPU? (I'm assuming this is one of the PowerPC's, not one of the DSP's?) In other words, what else is going to be broken/flaky besides v.42bis? Something else important is bound to be running on there and causing other hard-to-find problems... What kind of hardware failure would show up in exactly the same way for multiple customers? You'd think it would be a little more random... I hope this card is still under hardware warranty so I can get it RMA'ed... if I get someone the serial number is there a way to check? (We don't have hardware support, so it'd have to be warranty repair.)
