I need to know how to force a given connect speed using my new
laptop's built in "Conexant D480 MDC V.92 Modem". With my old
USRobotics, I used the "at&n1" to force 300 baud, and it worked like a
charm, to connect to environmental data collection platforms. (These
remote devices have a fairly short timeout; if you don't establish a
modem connection quickly they assume you are making a voice call and
deliver a voice synthesized message... of little use to me.)

Any advice is welcome. Conexant offers no help, nor have I found
anything at modemhelp.org. Thanks in advance.

AT command manuals can be found here:

I think the relevant command in your case is probably AT+MS=V21.

Thanks for the pointer to some very useful documents, Franc.

Unfortunately, I'm still getting no joy.

After trying the command you suggested, I also tried adding the
following commands:
\n0 - normal mode, no error correction
%e0 - Disable line quality monitor, auto-retrain, and autorate
renegotiation
%c0 - Disable data compression
+MS=B103 - remote DCP modem might use Bell 103 modulation

Can't say I tried every combination of these commands, but the result
always seems to be "NO CARRIER". I seem to get farther with the B103
modulation, as the remote system whistles until the local system times
out; with V21 the remote system goes to "announce" mode after trying
for about 10 seconds.

Again, thanks in advance for any suggestions.

I sent you an email but I guess you didn' get it.

Good luck

Does this modem in fact support Bell 103 300b/s operation ??
The User's Guide at:
http://docs.us.dell.com/docs/comm/eclipse/en/intro.htm
while skimpy and incomplete, implies that it does not.

Thanks, Don, that's the same document I found at the vee90.net site
that Franc referred me to.
