The issue here is that when you receive an SMS from the MSC the phone has to reply with an ACK. If you're sending an SMS at the same time, you're getting into trouble. The difference between the operators might be related to the fact that on one operator it takes longer than on others. Also different MSC's act different. We have seen situations like: You send a MT to a MSC which is then in progress of sending it to the phone. While doing that, another MT arrives to the MSC. Some MSCs reject the second, some do simply buffer it. > > 2) in your opinion, what is a "heavy duty GSM modem"? does anyone else > on the list have an opinion/recommendation for a "heavy duty GSM > modem"? i've seen people mention wavecom before.... ? We have used a few Siemens TC35 pretty sucessfully for this. We only receive on them. Now we changed to our own MSC emulation infrastructure which makes receiving a lot faster and reliable.
