Make sure the number of databits, parity presence, and number of stop bits adds up to the same number for both the DTE and the modem. > The biggest design complaint about the UDS v.32 modem I have, is that I > can not use it to talk at low speeds, such as 1200/2400 baud. We've tested the Penril Alliance V.32 here ($1345) against nearly every modem in our posession V.32, Microcom MNP V.29's, 103, and 212. The only modem it won't talk to is a Vadic 3400 protocol 1200 baud modem. It will talk to the UDS V.32 and whatever it is that Tymnet uses. -Ron
