Top Document: Win95 FAQ Part 5 of 14: Modems and TAPI Previous Document: 5.9. Programs that answer the phone... Next Document: 5.11. Oops... I have a Win 3.1 modem app too. How does that complicate things? See reader questions & answers on this topic! - Help others by sharing your knowledge * 5.10.1. ISDN Adapters Dial-up Networking 1.2 and later comes with ISDN configuration software, but the simplest ISDN adapters let you use any old version of Dial-up Networking or other PPP software. Such examples include Motorola's now-defunct BitSURFR and 3Com's Courier or Impact adapters. Previous releases of this FAQ described how difficult it was to get ISDN connectivity. Well, with the right adapter and a cooperative phone company, it proves simpler than I thought. NOTE: I used to refer to an ISDN "modem". Since there's no MOdulation or DEModulation occuring in an ISDN connection (except when the adapter provides analogue ports for regular phones and modems), the word "modem" is not the right word. * 5.10.2. Packet Radio transceivers This came up thanks to the efforts of Gordon McAndrew (gmcandrew@aec.env.gov.ab.ca), who originally posted about using PPP over packet radio. The solution was to use the null modem .INF file and issue commands directly to the radio device in a dial-up script. Unfortunately, Win95 insisted in sending a phone number string through the connection. They worked around this by inserting the user name into the space normally reserved for the phone number. Strange, huh? I don't know the command set used for packet radio modems, but I'd like to see a packet radio .inf file made up one day. For example, enter the radio frequency in the phone number box. Replace all the "AT" commands with appropriate ones for the radio. Thanks to Gordon McAndrew's work, we already know that PPP and TAPI in general does work over such a device. * 5.10.3. Null-modem cables I covered this already in Chapter 8, but I'll cover it here. There's a MDMCBX.INF file, used to identify the device to Win95, that lets you install a Direct Connection driver on a standard COM port. This can work with stuff besides dial-up networking. To install it, use Add New Hardware or the Modems control panel, and hit "Have disk..." so you can point to this .inf file. * 5.10.4. "Windows only" modems TAPI lets you use any kind of telephony device, not just COM port based modems, so it became fashionable to make "software" modems, or non-standard PnP modems that don't occupy a standard COM port address. To install this class of modem, hit "Have disk..." and feed it the disk with the drivers for the modem. If you can live without Win 3.1 or DOS support for these devices, they will work just fine with Win95 apps. In many cases they do create a DOS style device (like COM5: if you happen to already have four COM ports) than you can access from DOS or OS-friendly Win 3.1 apps that support non-standard devices. In other cases they will just show up as a TAPI device without any DOS support. Be prepared to stick with Win95 apps (a good idea in any case) if you purchase such a modem. * 5.10.5. PCI modems PCI modems are brand new as of September 1998. The only reasoning I can see for using a PCI slot modem is because you don't have any more ISA slots on your system. PCI is really overkill for something 1/20th the speed of a floppy disk drive. What's worse is the performace these things give. A PCI modem from Diamond, sold under the Supra label, has very poor latency compared to traditional ISA modems or COM port modems; 500 ms ping times compared to 120 ms or faster with a USR ISA modem. * 5.10.6. USB modems If you own 4.00.950B or later, or Win98, you can use modems that connect to Universal Serial Bus ports. USB is like a high speed version of Apple's Desktop Bus on the Macintosh, but is bidirectional; you can send data to USB devices as well as receive input from them. If you go USB, be prepared to abandon Win 3.1 and DOS communication programs altogether.
