[RESOLVED] Modem, <DLE> Data-Link Encapsulation

[CVMichael]

I'm programming in VB6, I'm trying to make an ansering machine.

I have a modem that keeps giving me problems:
AOpen FM56-PX 56K V.92 PCI Modem


It supports Caller ID, and Voice.

After I installed it, Caller ID would not work, and it would not even detect the phone ring... Voice worked fine, and <DLE> worked fine.

FYI: <DLE> (Data-Link Encapsulation, or Data Link Escape) is a byte delimiter (ASCII 16) that the modem returns in Voice mode telling me a special message (detection of dial tone, detection of phone numbers, basically all phone sounds). I used to get "<DLE>1<DLE>~" characters when you press #1 on the phone for example.

So, Caller ID did not work, and it would not report "RING" when I was getting a phone call.
I got upset, I bought a new modem US Robotics, but unfortunatelly it did not had voice (the seller people told me it had voice), so I returned it.

I put back the old AOpen modem... and all of a sudden Caller ID works !!
It detects Caller ID ! ... cool... guess what.... now I don't get <DLE> reporting !

Arggg stupid modem !!!

So, anyone knows maybe there is a setting to enable <DLE> reporting ?
Anyone had this problem ?
how to fix it ??

I'm trying to get this modem to work (perfectly) for like 3-4 weeks now....
