Much to my chagrin, most modems today are configured to always assert
DCD. Most M$ software expects them to be this way, so .... Check out
your modem's &C command for ways to change that setting (most Hayes
compatibles use the &C command, but, beware, YMMV). Usually, &C0
asserts it, and &C1 allows "normal" operation (ie only asserted when the
modem is actually online). Good luck getting the new setting saved in
your power-on-defaults (check out your &W commands) if it works for you!
