remote access to a r4.

I cant seem to get a stable connection to my partner using my laptop. I even set the baud on my internal modem to 300 thats the only speed that i can get a connection with, but then the switch drops me. Any ideas.

Are you using any expansion cards? I can connect as long as it's the Partner system itself, but if I have any expansion cards connected, the remote thing works very poorly.

Remote access with Partner ACS systems can be difficult. Most modems have trouble establishing a connection with the processor. Older posts in this forum indicate that some US Robotics external modems seem to work reasonably well.

I have found some PC's and laptops will require an external modem to make a solid connection, try some older posts for the brand and type. If you are dialing in, you may try connecting to an ext port direct to your modem, set it to auto line selection to intercom. dial string 76 for the internal partner modem. I have had better luck in this fashion than dialing in, but it is not perfect. I am not sure if you are trying to connect remote, or is you are on site.
