Lee –
I have that happen to me periodically, too. It seems to be independent
of the MNP button, more like it's the modem. I believe Whap looks for a
particular string to terminate a session, and if the modem hangs up before
it gets that string, Whap won't recognize it. What I do is simply hit the
Abort Now button and that gets me back to the main menu just fine.
The benefit of the switch is, it sets the serial port to 9600 rather
than 2400 (right, Steve?) which lets the modem dump to the computer faster,
speeding up (somewhat, anyway) the transfer process. I have it on all the
time, and on the average I'm a minute or two per session (once a day) ahead
with it on (if CIS is responding normally and isn't slow like it has
sometimes been lately). Not much, but over time it'll add up.
