First of all we are using it programatically and changing the baud rate: "F5S7=120P" // pulse and 2400 "F8S7=120T" // tone and 9600 etc.. When we realized the new modems were not changing baud rates with a palm pilot dialing into a server monitoring the transmission, (they were always sending at 28800)we tried using preferences Speed as well as putting in initialization strings the Init String in prefs. The modems acted the same, no baud rate change. We tried this with several old modems (that have worked all along) and several new modems, none worked. The old ones are gray and say 3Com on them, the new ones are black and say Palm on them.
So in answer to your question, we are trying to change the baud rate on the modem via the palm. To sum up: Programatically or using the palm prefs these modems do not change baud rates.

I don't know about the problem but my advice would be to explain exactly what you did and how you tested if you want help. Most "Hayes" modems use the initial "AT" to establish the baud rate. Some may need more than one or only work well out of reset. How are you trying to change the baud rate? On the modem, palm, or both? -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/tech/support/forums/ -- For information on using the ACCESS Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.access-company.com/developers/forums/
