Re: zoom modem issues

[Mike Connor <mikec@silug.org>]

Look through your modem doc. for the reset code and make sure it is being 
sent at the start of a session.  If memory serves, the code is "atz".  
That should put the modem back to its power on (stored) defaults.  If it 
doesn't, you've got a buggy modem -- maybe there's a firmware upgrade for 
it.

Personally, I like US Robotics modems.
