IBM PC - Failure to connect at 57.6Kbps baud rate
Applicable to: World-Wide
Symptom :
IBM PC 300 Series 6577/6587, PC 700 Series 6877/6887, and PC 365 Series 6589 systems with an external modem attached may fail to connect at a 57.6Kbps baud rate.
Problem Isolation Aids :
This failure does not affect all brands of external modems.
The modem may consistently fail to connect regardless of the operating system and/or the communication application used.
The system may display a modem not attached or not powered-on type error message while attempting to connect. Some applications may fail to connect without posting an error message.
The system does not exhibit a failure if the baud rate is set at a higher rate such as 115.2Kbps or a lower baud rate of 38.4Kbps.
Fix :
Do not replace system hardware. This is not a system unit hardware failure.
To resolve this failure, set the baud rate of the external modem to the next higher baud rate (115.2Kbps) or the next lower baud rate (38.4Kbps).
