It went back to the factory three times. They sent me a new modem (cable, documentation and all) the third time. I bought my modem in September, 1985, and finally got a working one in April, 1986. What really irked me was the first two times they sent it back with EXACTLY the same problems I sent it in with. My modem works fine now. Mike York uw-beaver!ssc-vax!voodoo!zombie
