  1. Bell 103 modem

    The Bell 103 modem or Bell 103 dataset was the second commercial modem for computer s, released by AT&T in 1962 . It allowed digital data to be transmitted over regular unconditioned telephone line s at a speed of 300 bits per second . It followed the introduction of the 110 baud Bell 101 dataset in 1958. The Bell 103 modem used audio frequency shift keying to encode data. Different pairs of audio frequencies were used by each station The originating station used a mark tone of 1,270 Hertz Hz and a space tone of 1,070 Hz. The answering station used a mark tone of 2,225 Hz and a space tone of 2,025 Hz. Although original Bell 103 modems are no longer in common use, this encoding scheme is referred to generically as Bell 103 modulation , and any device employing it as Bell 103 compatible or a Bell 103 modem . For many years, higher speed modems retained the ability to emulate the Bell 103, allowing a fallback method for data to be communicated at low speed if channel conditions deteriorated. Applications Bell 103 modulation is still in use today, in shortwave radio , amateur radio , and some commercial applications. Its low data signaling rate signalling speed and use of audio frequencies makes it suitable for noisy or unreliable narrowband links. For example, the CHU callsign CHU shortwave station in Ottawa , Canada transmits a Bell 103 compatible digital time code every minute. Bell 103 modulation is also the standard for amateur packet radio in the High frequency HF shortwave bands. Related technology The ITU T ITU V.21 V.21 communications standard defines a very similar modulation scheme. Commercial 300 baud modems typically support both formats.

These signalling protocols, also used in third party modems, are referred to generically as Bell 202 modulation , and any device employing it as Bell 202 compatible . Bell 202 AFSK uses a 1200 Hz tone for mark typically a binary 1 and 2200 Hz for space typically a binary 0 . In North America and perhaps elsewhere , Bell 202 AFSK modulation is used to transmit Caller ID information over Plain old telephone service POTS lines in the Public Switched Telephone Network public telephone network . It is also employed in some commercial settings. Surplus Bell 202 modems were used by amateur radio operators to construct the first packet radio stations, despite its low data signaling rate signalling speed .

  1. Fall back and forward

    for the seasonal changing of clock Daylight saving time Fall back is a feature of a modem protocol in data communication whereby two communicating modem s which experience data corruption due to line noise , for example can renegotiate with each other to use a lower speed connection. Fall forward is a corresponding feature whereby two modems which have fallen back to a lower speed can later return to the higher speed if the connection improves. A common feature modem s was the concept of fallback, allowing them to talk to less capable modems. During the call initiation the modem would play a series of signals into the line and wait for the remote modem to answer them. They would start at high speeds and progressively get slower and slower until they heard an answer. Thus, two USR modems would be able to connect at 9600 bit s, but, when a user with a 2400 bit s modem called in, the USR would fall back to the common 2400 bit s speed. This would also happen if a V.32 modem and a HST modem were connected. Because they used a different standard at 9600 bit s, they would fall back to their highest commonly supported standard at 2400 bit s. The same applies to V.32bis and 14400 bit s HST modem, which would still be able to communicate with each other at only 2400 bit s. A modem that can fall back in order to communicate with an older, slower modem is an example of backward compatibility , while one that can fall back in order to communicate when the line becomes noisy is an example of graceful degradation .

It is sometimes done for the sake of Bandwidth signal processing bandwidth i.e. by buying a 512kbit s access modem and then altering it to 10Mbit s , pluggable interfaces as by using more than one public ID , or any configurable options a DOCSIS modem can offer. Uncapping may be considered an illegal activity, such as Theft of services theft of service ref http www.computerworld.com s article 9140239 Cable modem hacker busted by feds Cable modem hacker busted by feds ref , and many Internet service providers check modem configuration files nightly to detect uncapped modems. If caught, uncappers risk possible account termination and or prosecution for theft of service. Citation needed date February 2007 Note that regardless of legality, uncapping may be a violation of the Terms of Service agreement that the customer has with the ISP. Methods There are several methods used to uncap a cable modem, by hardware, software, tricks, alterations, and modifications. The first technique there were others before this to enjoy any success uncapped Motorola modems such as the SB3100, SB4100, and SB4200 models . By Spoofing attack spoofing the Internet service provider s TFTP server, the modem is made to accept a different configuration file than the one provided by the TFTP server. This configuration file tells the modem the download and upload caps it should enforce.

The signal goes high at the same time the modem reports its CONNECT message, and stays high until the call is disconnected.

The SupraFAX is an example of a disruptive technology although it arrived into an existing modem market, its price performance ratio was so great compared to any other model available that its introduction drove modem prices sharply downward.

The basic premise is that a special Signalling telecommunications signal is sent over phone lines to the computer through its dial up modem, telling it to fully power on and begin operation. Common uses were archive database s and Bulletin board system BBSes , although hobbyist use was significant. Fax machines use a similar system, in which they are mostly idle until receiving an incoming fax signal, which spurs operation.

  1. Usrobotics sportster magic string

    Unreferenced date December 2009 Orphan date November 2006 The USRobotics Sportster magic string was a modem AT command that exploited the fact that revision 4.1 USRobotics Sportster 14.4 modems had exactly the same internal hardware and circuitry as the much more expensive USRobotics Dual HST 16.8 modems. Both modems were produced in the early 1990s. In ASCII , the magic string is represented as ATGW03C6,22GW05CD,2F The effect of setting a Sportster 14.4 s b Status register register to the value 6 , and subsequently sending the magic string to the modem , is the modem becoming a Dual HST 16.8, which at the time retailed for roughly five times the price 700 USD as the consumer oriented Sportster 14.4. After receiving the magic string, the modem identifies itself as USRobotics Courier 16800 HST Dual Standard . Consequently, End user users fortunate enough to be in possession of this particular revision of the modem found themselves able to use digital communications protocols normally reserved for the corporate arena or Bulletin Board System SysOps, with hardware they would otherwise not have been able to afford.

The Bell 101 modem allowed digital data to be transmitted over regular unconditioned telephone lines at a speed of 110 bits per second . Bell 101 modems are no longer in use, and were quickly replaced by its successor the Bell 103 modem . Semi Automatic Ground Environment SAGE modems were described by AT&T s Bell Labs as conforming to the Bell 101 dataset standard. The Bell 101 modems were the first commercial equipment to use ASCII , which was called four row , as opposed to the Baudot code Baudot three row 6 bit character code which was predominate from 1908 1962, prior to the rise of Extended Binary Coded Decimal Interchange Code EBCDIC .
