This won't help at all.  The only thing that "Transmit Pace Time" does
is change the wait time between transmitted characters during an ASCII
transfer.  What you need to do is something like this:

:LOOP
WAITFOR "First name:" 25
IF NOT WAITFOR GOTO LOOP
<send name, etc.>

This will make it loop forever, waiting for the string you specify.  You
could also try increasing the wait time in the waitfor statement.
