5900.0. "ISDN connection hangs on NT V4.0, but not Windows 95" by ANGST::tunsrv2-tunnel.imc.das.dec.com::angst::boebinger (John Boebinger - (216) 656-9835) Thu Apr 10 1997 15:12

I seem to have an odd problem with ISDN and NT V4.0.  (Note, on the same 
box, line, TA, etc, everything works on Windows 95).

If I'm doing something that stream data quickly (like HTTP or FTP), the 
connection hangs.  However, operations that are more "chatty" (like NTTP or 
TELNET) do not cause a hang.  The symptom of the hang is that (according to 
the monitor) bytes are being sent out but nothing is coming back.

The ISDN TA is an external device (Zyxel Omni TA128) connected to a 16550 
UART serial port at 115kbps.  I'm only using one B channel at the monent 
for a 64kpbs connection, hardware and software compression disabled.

My configuration is Pentium 120, 64MB, NT V4.0 with Service Pack 2, with 
the RAS40I, KRNL40I, SERIALI, and WTCP40I hotfixes.  (Note, the same 
problem occurred with just the RAS40I hotfix on top of Service Pack 2).

As I said, Windows95 on the same machine works just fine.  Is the solution 
to reinstall NT V4.0 without any service packs?  Or does this sound like 
some other problem?

thanks - john
