Handshake Sequence
Preliminary tests show that, on average, connect times are 30 percent to 40 percent faster with V.92 than with V.90. ISPs will benefit from the timesavings because they log millions of sessions every day. The quick connect V.92 feature works by “training” the client modem on the first call. Analog characteristics and digital impairment information are captured in a profile stored on the local disk drive or, for external modems, in RAM. The V.92 modem looks for this local profile and checks whether the server modem is V.92-capable. If it is, the V.92 modem proceeds with the quick connect handshake.
