Is there anything for installing drivers on windows 11? I've tried the XP/2K drivers that work under windows 10 32 bit, supposed windows 7 drivers that
were a mac image of a cd and supposed windows 10 64 bit drivers that weren't identified. I've got this working on my windows 10 32 bit system, but want
it on a windows 11 system as I'm not using that IP address to connect to my
bbs and would be able to identify dial-up users from sexpots from that
system.

No, external USB modem. Thats the same issue I had when I had my dialup line last year. But I am on Win7, so it worked.

there are lots of new motherboards that come with serial ports. just no cable bracket to bring the connector out to the case. those are fairly cheap on eBay though

That's certainly true. They do make USB/serial adapters that work, as
I've done it with an external USR modem connected to a modern computer
running Linux. The BBS software thinks it's talking to a normal serial
port.

Hello Shurato!

Yes, I was impressed that it's a hardware modem! Now I need someone to test my connection! 986-303-1430.

I managed to connect, but after a short period of time, it disconnected due to some error during retraining. Fun nevertheless. =)

Some Sysops never shut-up about them. Their boards were the first to vanish

AND always shit to connect to. ALWAYS had problems or got some shitty conne rate. 31200, or 33600 to any other board .... usr board ... nahh .. let's d 21600.

The vast majority of my callers were 2400 to 14.4... the odd 28.8 but the quality of phonelines was shit so never really saw any incoming calls getting that true 28800, always 21600 or weird 16800 / 19200.

My dipshit friends at the time later on were bragging about 33.6 and 56k and "k-flex" whatever fad for dialup Internet but they NEVER EVER got any connects higher than 31200. And those 56k's kept disconnecting or were shit Winmodems.

For NVME SSD you have to use PCI-Express X4(+ adapter), so you must use one X16 slot.

I use a "recent" 56K serial modem. Is OEM, ref "RS-232 56K Ext Modem",
another ref "308000". Small, work very well in VoIP, it use "recent" Conexant SM56D chipset. Even has a litle speaker (buzzer) inside to monitor phone line, rare theses days. (But had only 3 monitor LEDs)

I am not 100% sure about how Windows handles those, either. In past, on linux systems, you had to be sure to plug them into a USB 2.x port. For whatever reason, they don't work well with USB 3.x and up. I found that out from experience. ;)

Otherwise, it seems to work just about as well as anything else would in an area where there is no copper, and where I am using what is provided by the local phone company (vs. getting my own ATA -- which I eventually plan to do).

We did - 24 calls on the evening of 19 September, from Warsaw, a
USRobotics Courier on a VoIP gateway with not one metre of
copper on our side. Your modem answers fine and we reached 14400
with V.42bis, but V.8 never completes between us, so V.34 never
gets a chance. One call in full - spectrum, signalling, packet
stats, audio replay, no login needed:

https://ftn.deadsocket.church/lc/?r=762cfc551d7f16ef7973066d8d95d344

That is the 22:43 call: CONNECT 14400/ARQ/V32/LAPM/V42BIS,
carrier in 45.7 s, 2400 Bd and 1800 Hz both ways, -19.0 dBm in,
-11.5 out, 11898 characters read. One retrain, and it finished
at 12000 rather than the 14400 it started on. We ended it.

Your answer tone is ANSam, not plain ANS: the 2100 Hz carrier
has sidebands at 2085 and 2115 Hz, 20.2 and 20.6 dB down - clean
15 Hz modulation. Your modem announces V.8 correctly. Then it
stalls. From the 22:33 call, our V.8 left on:

10.5-13.5 s your ANSam
14.0-15.0 s you send JM on V.21 channel 2, we send CM on
channel 1 - the exchange begins
16.0-16.5 s you drop to an 1800 Hz V.32 carrier while we are
still repeating CM
21.5 s on both sides broadband, nothing agreed
27.5 s you go back to 2100 Hz and start over

That loops until our S7 expires - NO CARRIER at 64 s, while the
gateway cheerfully reports the call connected throughout.
Turning off V.34 alone changed nothing; skipping V.8 is what
works. ATS56=96 plus ATS54=240 and we land on V.32bis.

WHAT 24 CALLS SAY ABOUT THE LINE

13 connected, 54 %. Speeds 4800 ten times, 14400 three times,
twelve of thirteen with V.42 LAPM. Carrier up in 39.6 to 57.8 s,
median 42.0. Medians across all 24, to us / from us:

jitter p95 0.82 / 0.88 ms
jitter worst 2.08 / 1.25 ms
jitter RFC3550 0.06 / 0.39 ms
clock drift +17 / +35 ppm, ~5 ms over a 2 min call

Receive level sat between -19.0 and
-19.3 dBm on ten of the eleven connected calls that reported it
- 0.3 dB of spread across four hours. The eleventh is the odd
one: CONNECT 14400/V32/NONE, no error control, -54.0 dBm, 130
characters, gone 4.3 s later with Loss of Carrier.


THEN YOU BANNED US ;-)

At 23:34 your gate started saying this instead:

Synchronet External POTS Support/Win32 v2.1
Copyright 2025 Rob Swindell
Connection Rate Exceeded. Try Again Later.
NO CARRIER

and later just: Access Denied. -Click!-

Until 23:32 every call that held an ARQ link pulled 6 to 13 kB
of EleBBS screen; after that, nothing but the banner. Fair
enough - 24 calls in one evening to somebody else's board is not
neighbourly. We have stopped, and there will be no more from
here unless you ask. We never reached the login screen and did
not create an account.

One question ?
The thread says StarTech 56k USB, Conexant, hardware - but not
what is behind it. Real copper POTS, or an ATA or VoIP service
in the way? If your side is VoIP too, two G.711 legs back to
back would explain a lot about V.8, and that is a more
interesting result than either of our modems. And if they are
handy: what does your modem report after one of our calls, and
what init string are you answering with?

I don't think it was sexpots, I think it was rgtel. It had 127.0.0.1 in the blacklist. I added 127.0.0.1 to the whitelist and cleared out the blacklist. Let me know if you still have problems getting on, and if there are any init strings I should try to increase the stability. sexpots seems to use it's
own and overwrite the one in the device drivers.

Hello Shurato!

Thanks for tracking down the block - good call on rgtel and the
127.0.0.1 in its blacklist. I will dial in again now it is cleared.

Short version: don't change a thing for V.8. Diamond Dave reaching
you at 31200 settles it - 31200 is V.34, and V.34 only starts after
V.8 completes. So your side negotiates V.8 fine; the trouble is not
on your end.

The 14400 was mine. My Courier does 31200/V.34 to boards in Europe,
so it is not V.8-shy either - it just cannot complete V.8 across my
route to you: Warsaw -> a cloud VoIP trunk -> PSTN -> your line, and
that long hop adds enough delay and jitter that the V.8 tone phase
falls apart before V.34 can lock. On a cleaner path, like Diamond
Dave's, it just works. Nothing to fix on your side, no init string
needed.

I will run a fresh batch now the block is gone and post the
diagnostics - public link, no login, as before. Mostly an experiment
my end: a Courier on pure VoIP, not a metre of copper.

Best regards,
kombos

Yes, I was impressed that it's a hardware modem! Now I need someone to test my connection! 986-303-1430.

I finally connect to the BBS (from France) at 24000 bps today. Have tested 4 different external modems but i have only luck with my USRobotics Courier 3453C...

Weird. I'm not sure why one modem would have more luck than others...
Any way, I'm glad you were able to connect!

That was always the case ... but my luck was with ZOOM modems ... USRs are shit. :)

I second this, my Rockwell got absolutely abused and still answered every stinkin' call. USR's were overrated and shoved down our throats in my area.

Some Sysops never shut-up about them. Their boards were the first to vanish.

AND always shit to connect to. ALWAYS had problems or got some shitty connect rate. 31200, or 33600 to any other board .... usr board ... nahh .. let's do 21600.

... You're right - now shut up, someone might hear you....

Diamond Dave was able to connect to my VoIP line at 31200! I was impressed! Others have had luck at 14400, but anything over 9600 is a miracle!

Maybe it depend of the ATA device. I know there is some models that work better with modems. I tweak mine ATA for better connections, FSX settings, Codecs, etc.

... Make love not war - see sysop for details.

Yes, my ATA is a HT802V2 and I've got PCMU, High fixed latency and some other settings that are supposed to be optimized.
