[hylafax-users] Modem Buffer memory

[George Bell <gbell5@cox.net>]

I just queried my modem's buffer size (both receive/transmit I guess) 
with the AT+FBS command, while the modem was not busy.  My modem is a 
(as returned by ATI command) " LT V.92 1.0 MT5634ZPX-PCI-V92 
Internal/Fax/Voice Modem Version 1.25p and " Multi-Tech Systems" as 
returned by AT+FMI command.  

The result I get is

AT+FBS?
0AF0,0800

OK

The first parameter should be the modem buffer size, which translates 
into decimal as
2800.  I presume this is in bytes?   That means there's just 2.7 Kb of 
modem buffer memory. Geez, why so little?  If your average video card 
can hold multi-megabytes then why only a few paltry kilobytes for a modem?
