I see from the archives that if modem compression is turned off, then VJ compression operates more efficiently. Among other things.. quote:............ 3. Modem compression, as you have noticed, often interferes with VJ compression used in SLIP and PPP implementations. 2. Modem compression often interferes with, and lengthens transfer of, compressed files such as .gz and .jpg. 1. Modem compression slows down turn-around time -- terrible for interactive sessions. ............................... pppctl indicates that VJ Compression is on, on the ppp link, although I know I turned compression off in the modem (%C0 - Hayes Accura). But, is there any improvement in turning off VJ Compression as well, or is it better left on? bob -- http://www.chalmers.com.au. Publications From China in 24 different languages.
