My understanding of the Global Village Teleport ADB modem was that the tradeoff you got for freeing up a serial port was that you had to use their software. I don't know that much about it, but I don't understand how you could configure any comm program to use it since it looks for it in the serial port. If you can get a comm program to work, I would recommend White Knight (used to be Red Ryder) It's kinda expensive, but it's a beast! -- []-------------------------------------------------------------------------[] | Internet: dewhirst@kuhub.cc.ukans.edu | Famous Last Words: | | Sysop: The MacRocosm BBS 913-841-9446 | "I drank what?" - Socrates | | AOL: Echopapa | "I coulda had a V8" - von Braun | []-------------------------------------------------------------------------[]
