[Dx4win] Modem losing connection

Tue, 05 Feb 2002 22:27:54 -0600

When I used to run modems, I wound several turns of the phone cable through 
a 2 inch ferrite. I did discover that it is possible to have too many turns 
though. When I really maxed out the turns on the core, the modem would 
never connect.

(Boy, I love this broadband stuff)
