Re: Download speed
Hi Andreas Thanks for your message. The modem is an external whith cables supplied whith the modem. The configuration of the modem port is: /dev/ttyS1, Line 1, UART: 16550A, Port: 0x02f8, IRQ: 3 Baud_base: 115200, close_delay: 50, divisor: 0 closing_wait: 3000, closing_wait2: infinte Flags: spd_normal skip_test session_lockout The modem string used for initzialisation is ATF (default from supplier) and the ppp configuration and starting scripts are original Debian whith only my own data changed. A download from my Internet provider looks like this (w95 whitin brackets ): Linux speed ~ 2.9 Kb/s and for the same file W95 speed ~4.9 Kb/s atv1 TERMINATION REASON.. LOCAL REQUEST LAST TX data rate... 31200 BPS (31200) HIGHEST TX data rate 31200 BPS (31200) LAST RX data rate... 48000 BPS (44000) HIGHEST RX data rate 48000 BPS (46000) Error correction PROTOCOL... LAPM(LAPM) Data COMPRESSION V42Bis (V42BIS) Line QUALITY 127 (2) Receive LEVEL... 016 (14) Highest SPX Receive State... 68 (A9) Highest SPX Transmit State.. 67 (67) EQM Sum Value... 00AD(00CD) RBS Pattern detected 00 (00) Data Rate Dropped in kbps... 00 (00) Digital Pad Detected None(None) The differences are in Line QUALITY, Highest SPX Recive State and EQM Sum Value. What they are and how they are estimated I don't know.According to Line QUALITY (range 0 - 255) the modem manual (very diminutive) says the value for a normal connection ranges from 0 to 2 and approaches 8 for a progressively poorer connection. When the value is 8 or greater the modem vill automaticly retrain if enabled by AT%E1. I agree that there must be somthing wrong in system configuration but I can't figure out what. By the way here is the modem settings: atv ACTIVE PROFILE: B0 E1 L1 M1 N1 Q0 T V1 W0 X4 Y0 C1 D2 G0 J0 K3 Q5 R1 S0 T5 X0 Y0 S00:000 S01:000 S02:043 S03:013 S04:010 S05:008 S06:010 S07:050 S08:002 S09:006 S10:014 S11:095 S12:050 S18:000 S25:005 S26:001 S36:007 S37:000 S38:020 S44:020 S46:138 S48:007 S95:000 Regards Sture -- E-Mail: Sture Palminger [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: 29-Jun-98 Time: 12:37:08 This message was sent by XFMail -- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
