Does anyone out there know why, or how to correct the following problem when
using a Penril auto-dial/auto-answer modem with the Basic Networking
software package on the 3b2?  After the modem hangs up, regardless if
a successful connection was made or not, the modem oscillates on the
phone line.  What I mean by this is that it picks up the line, gets a
dial tone for an instant and hangs up.  It does this several times
with a few second interval several times before stopping and freeing
the line so it can again be used.  I don't know if it's the uucp/cu
software, the 3b2 itself, or the Penril.  Anyone have any ideas?  If
it's any help, i've  tried different phone lines and different
Penrils. (all 8216 AD1200/300 Penrils)  Thanks in advance.
