Swell. So you got one of those no-name, no-documentation modems?

:
The Hayes 2400 does not have hardware flow control, but your modem probably
does. Unfortunately, we have no idea what its commands are, so we don't know
how to control its features.
Some modems are set up to use high speeds, hardware flow control, error
correction, data compression, and speed buffering by default -- or at least
this is their factory configuration. Who knows what your other software has
done to the modem or what state it was left in.
You might try something like this:
set modem type user-defined
set modem name noname-v34
set modem maximum-speed 57600
set modem capabilities AT SB EC DC HWFC
set modem command init-string AT&F\13
set modem dial-command atd%s\13
set modem command autoanswer on ats0=0\13
set modem command autoanswer off ats0=1\13
set modem command error-correction on {}
set modem command error-correction off {}
set modem command compression on {}
set modem command compression off {}
set modem command hangup-command ath0\13
set modem command hardware-flow {}
set modem command software-flow {}
set modem command no-flow-control {}
set modem command tone att\13
set modem command pulse atp\13
Put these commands in your K95CUSTOM.INI file and see if they work.
Then:
set port com1 ; or whatever
set speed 57600
set modem speed-matching off
set flow rts/cts
set dial display on
Then DIAL and watch what happens.
Notes:
1. AT&F is the pseudo-semi-standard way to reset a "modern" modem's
factory defaults.
2. SET MODEM COMMAND blah {} sets the modem's command string for "blah"
to be nothing, the empty string, and therefore should cause Kermit not
to send any command at all for "blah" or expect a response.
Once you get this working, then it's relatively simple to automate it in
the Dialer, etc. If you need more help, send email to:
