Is 19200 too low? (GPL)

3 posts by 2 people · 10 Aug 1999 - 10 Aug 1999

I've been getting frustrated with disconnects and lost lap times racing on line with GPL lately. Funny thing is I have a cable modem - a one way cable modem for now. Unfortunately I still have to depend on a regular modem for my up stream. I'm using a Multitech ZDX 33.6 and until today my baud rate in DUN was set to 57600. The max my ISP (MediaOne) will let my modem connect at is 28800. BTW my cable modem has been known to reach 4Mbps down stream so I'm definitely not complaining about that ;) I also set the assumedModemConnectSpeed = 19200 in Core.INI. Just for the record I'm also using clock_adj_delay = 8 and synch_method = 0. Is 19200 too low? Can GPL hosts get what they need with that speed or should I set it at 33600? Thanks in advance!

FYI that line is only for GPL's direct modem to modem connection, and will not have any effect on GPL's use of a Win9X DUN connection. Eric
Thanks Eric, I wasn't sure about that one... wrote...
