I am generally opposed to modem init strings which are longer
than they have to be, so I'll pipe in here.
For the new Zoom 56K modem, you have to put it into the documented
factory default mode. This is interesting because you would think
that the normal command:
AT&F&W
would do that. But the Zoom modem being a POS and all, this doesn't
do it. Instead, you need to:
AT&F+MS=11,1,300,33600&W
According to the manual, this string should be a NOOP: the +MS is
superfluous. However, according to practical experience (and I
spent two hours on this yesterday), this is required.
Of course, the AT command which shows you modem parameters doesn't give
you the +MS values (which pinhead implemented THAT command?), so I can't
really tell what this is doing, except putting the modem back the
way that the manual says it came from the factory. Except it didn't.
This doesn't mean that Miker's string won't work; it must means that
the MINIMUM string to get a Zoom 56 up against a PM3 is that.
