I have the dip switches for the modem all in original settings (all up I believe) and I have adjusted the jumpers on the modem to connect DSR In to DCD out and DCD In to CTS Out (c&e connected and B & D connected for those who are familiar with the jumpers on the modem) then i use the datalinks built in firmware to set the s register to 1 so it will answer the phone...then i exit out of the firmware and load and run the bbs software. when I get a call...the modem answers but the bbs program wont come up... I dont know what else to try...so if anybody can give me anymore suggestions or tell me what im doing wrong, It would be appreciated.... thanks. -- Keith M.
