- I had the same problem if you call the IBMLink support center they can
- tell you the modem options for just about all of them. What you need is to
- change the "AT" command in the dial.pcs file to the following.
-
- AT &F L0 &D2 Q0 &K0 &Q0 S36=1 S46=136 S48=128\r
-
- You should call them and get the 9600 baud number for your area. Then update
- this same file with the speed info.
-
- Note: keep a backup copy of the changes the INPCS setup if run will
- back them out.
