Modem Configuration Strings
For IRC to function correctly, the modem must be configured correctly. The
modem is configured using the primary and secondary initialization strings,
which are specified during the configuration process. For many modems, the
proper initialization strings can be found in Appendix A. This section provides
the information necessary to determine the proper initialization strings for
modems not listed in this chapter.
To function in a wide array of computing environments, modems have many
configuration options. Table 6-2 provides a summary of those settings which
are important for compatibility with IRC.
