Hi Tonya, We had the same problem. I think the problem is that these darn modems are just too smart. We set the initialization string to force 2400, turn off error correcting and compression. That worked. I'll send you the string we used when I get a chance to look it up. BTW, the kind of modems that work best for this job are old 2400 external sportsters...the kind we all have collecting dust on some shelf. cheers, Jim Reeves

Do you get a connection? Erwin -----Urspr�ngliche Nachricht----- Von: Tonya Spurlock [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Gesendet: Montag, 20.

I tried changing the modem initialization string to X1, X2, X3, and X4, but neither worked.

One of the biggest problem is to set the X-Parameter to the right value. Try the values X1, X2, X3 and X4. Good Look Erwin -----Urspr�ngliche Nachricht----- Von: Tonya Spurlock [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Gesendet: Freitag, 17. Januar 2003 17:54 An: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Betreff: [WhatsUp Forum] cant get paging to work I have looked in the kb and on this forum and as of yet I haven't been able to find anything that helped... I am trying to setup my paging, however when I enter in all of my information and hit test I get the following error "no carrier". I hear the modem dial out and pick up but then "no carrier" and I get a pop up saying "pager failed." I have tried commas in behind the number it too was unsuccessful. Here are the settings I am currently using: Display name: Test Terminal number: "the number I received from my paging service" which is metrocall Terminal password: "this isn't needed" Pager ID; " I entered in my pager number here" Message string; "using default" Protocol: TAP-"confirmed with my pager service Modem Initialization string: "using default" Baud Rate: 2400 COM Port: COM 1 8N1 is NOT checked I am currently using brand new US Robotics 56k faxmodem. Any and all suggestions would be very helpful. Thanks in advance, Tonya Spurlock Please visit http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html to be removed from this list.
