Well, I hate to look a gift horse in the mouth and
DNET *does* have a lot of nice features....
but why is it so slow??
Two weeks ago I was using a old leading edge (ibm-pc
clone) with CrossTalk and a 2400 baud modem.
Now I'm on an A3000 :-) running DNET with a
2400 baud modem (AMT Star)... and my response
time is very noticeably slower.
In both cases I'm dialing up to the same Sun4.

Maybe the reason is obvious? (Remember I'm new
to the multi-tasking amiga environment).
I've read through most of the documentation and had
basically no trouble getting DNET up and running.
Will I get better response time with commercial
comm software (which?) or can I do something to
DNET?

thanks for any pointers!
