Sigh... Sounds awful. Are you sure your modem wasn't gazunked? [dead]. With the ASDG dual serial board, I have no problems at all with 9600. Getting modems talking to each other is an arcane art, and I am merely pleased that my CHOICE of sites include ones that talk to my choice of modem with a minimum of fuss. I am using a NetComm M5 (Australian made) which uses CCITT V.32 with MNP4. I can get MNP5, but haven't bothered, yet. The number of places I can call that have V.32 capability are small, and most of those are long distance. Even at V.32 long distance charges suck! > Does anybody have a spec of the "G" protocol that they'd be willing to share? Me too, me too.

Keeping up with the Jones' is very expensive, no? :-) > Donald Phillips donp@blkhole or Dac -- _l _ _ // Andrew Clayton. Canberra, Australia. I Post . (_](_l(_ \X/ ccadfa.cc.adfa.oz.au!prolix!dac . .
