Legend 016 card is not allowing lap

[billings]

Legend 016 card is not allowing laptops using these analog ports for modems to communicate, get nothing but garbage on laptop screens. Already tried different baud rate settings on laptops, and these laptop modems were working fine before we installed on the analog ports.
Any ideas?

I could be wrong, but I thought that only 4 of the 16 ports could be used for traditional analog devices... is this a 16 T/R or a 16 ETR? Another consideration is your external trunking... are they T1's or copper trunks? You loose a lot going copper-Legend-copper, but they should still connect.

If it's an 016ETR, you can convert the last six ports to t/r. 016 TR you don't convert a thing. Stick a regular single line household phone in that thing and see what you get.

You maximum Baud rate on any analog device using regular POTS(plain old telephone service) lines is at 14400, if you are dialing out over a T1 or PRI then you are able to connect at 28800, this might not fix your problem, but some useful info.

Set your Baud rate on the laptop modems to 28.8 and see what happens. Normally you don't need to do this, but certain modems will react differently on systems. I can run my on board laptop modem over one of my customers legends with a T-1 and connect around 48.9-51.5. Just kind of depends on the service. If all the modems are the same, try a different type of modem.
