- Packard Bell 486 desktop bought last year with 2400 baud internal
- modem on com1, now supplementing with 28.8K US Robotics Sportster
- external plugged into com2. I THINK I did all the settings right
- per manuals, but response is flaky with all softwares installed
- (procomm, compuserve info mgr, compuserve mosaic). With no change
- of installation, repeat tries to log on may work fine, or declare
- modem not responding, or OK but password wrong, or 'modem error',
- etc ... often resolved by turning modem off then on again and try
- again. Everything works fine, good session, maybe one try in 3.
- Modem returned to store checks out fine (salesman reports.) Any
- ideas ?
- Thanks from art@cochise.biosci.arizona.edu
