The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Workgroup Connections, version 1.0
- Microsoft Remote Access Service, version 1.1a
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYMPTOMS
========
When you are using Workgroup Connections version 1.0 and Remote Access Service
(RAS) version 1.1a, a modem connection using compression to a Sprintet X.25
Packet Assembly/Disassembly (PAD) may fail and the following error message may
appear:
RAS Error 212
Bad Modem or COM Port Failure
CAUSE
=====
After renaming MCOMP.INF to MODEM.INF and dialing to the X.25 PAD, the
connection drops upon PAD initialization and results in the error message above.
WORKAROUND
==========
To avoid this problem, use the MODEM.INF file that comes with RAS 1.1a and limit
the modem transfer rate to 9600 baud.
