[hylafax-users] Modem doesn't say 'RING' and delay between TCF and +FDR

[Marc Ledermann <marc@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I'm struggeling in geting Hylafax work with a ZyXEL U-1496e on a
SuSE 9.1 machine. At the moment there seem to last two problems. Both
are related to inbound activity (outbound seems to work really
fine...):

1) some strange behaviour: modem doesn't send 'RING' on a
call, but silly chars. If I make a ATZ on a minicom console a few
seconds before the call arrives, there will be 'RING' and faxgetty is
able to answer. But  after that, the silly chars are back... Probably
a problem with the init strings, but I didn't change the defaults.

2) incomming faxes mostly abort with an error. Log follows...
(And behind the log there is my config.ttyS0)
until I added the two lines:
PercentGoodLines:       0
MaxConsecutiveBadLines: 0
every try to get a fax failed. Now every fax arrives, but it's not
human readable. Tooooooo many errors, I can identify lines of text,
but only two or three words on a page are clear...

I remember I faxed with my good old 1496e very successfully years
ago...
