Has anyone else noticed this? Connecting with an internal SupraExpress56 flashed to 1.000-03, connecting to a max 4048 running 5.0Ap23 with channelized T1's this is what I see... From one location, I get speeds ranging from 38,000 - 44,000. Every time I sonnect at 42,000 it retrains down to 40,000. It will do this from 15-30 seconds into a connection, without fail. All other speeds look stable, except for 42,000 bps. Checking it with AT&V1 shows it down-shifts to 40,000 bps each time. I don't know if this is a full retrain or some other kind of speed shift- it only takes about 1-2 seconds to drop from 42,000 to 40,000, and once it shifts it stays at 40,000 for the remainder of the connection. I haven't tried this with other k56flex modems or other locations yet. I am curious on whether 42,000 is just an unstable speed or if this is particular to this specific setup. Also, a caveat to everyone out there doing k56flex. There are some generic k56flex modems hitting the market now that are complete crap. I tried out one internal (8-bit ISA for a PC), that had no manufacturer identification in it or in the packaging whatsoever. It's rom based and pretty worthless. Also- does anyone else notice that upstream connection speeds are a notch lower in client code 1.000-03 compared to 0.519D? -- Will Pierce System Administrator Dreamscape Online, LLC. willp@dreamscape.com ++ Ascend Users Mailing List ++ To unsubscribe: send unsubscribe to ascend-users-request@bungi.com To get FAQ'd: <<A HREF="http://www.nealis.net/ascend/faq">http://www.nealis.net/ascend/faq</A>> </PRE> <!--X-MsgBody-End--> <!--X-Follow-Ups--> <HR> <STRONG>Follow-Ups</STRONG>: <UL> <LI><STRONG><A HREF="msg08419.html">Re: (ASCEND) K56Flex Speeds</A></STRONG></LI> <UL> <LI><EM>From</EM>: Rob Wynne <rob@24hoursupport.com></LI> </UL> </UL> <!--X-Follow-Ups-End--> <!--X-References--> <!--X-References-End--> <!--X-BotPNI--> <HR> <UL> <LI>Prev by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg08417.html">Re: (ASCEND) remote reboot of MAX via SNMP</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg08415.html">Re: (ASCEND) remote reboot of MAX via SNMP</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Prev by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg08437.html">RE: (ASCEND) Repost: Remote reboot of MAX via SNMP</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg08419.html">Re: (ASCEND) K56Flex Speeds</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Index(es): <UL> <LI><A HREF="mail19.html#08416"><STRONG>Main</STRONG></A></LI> <LI><A HREF="thrd154.html#08416"><STRONG>Thread</STRONG></A></LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> <!--X-BotPNI-End--> <!--X-User-Footer--> <!--X-User-Footer-End--> </BODY> </HTML>
