GeoPort Modem: AOL v3.0D Issue

Version 3.0D of AOL that was initially bundled with the Power Macintosh 6500 (and System 7.5.5) contained an incorrect initialization string for the GeoPort modem.

Instead of disabling some of the result codes using ATW0, the string enables all results codes, ATW2. The additional result codes disrupt the process of getting the local number list for AOL and it drops the connection.

Unfortunately, the user only sees a dialog that informs them that the modem has lost the carrier. These result codes do not affect normal AOL connections.
