- Hi,
-
- I have a friend of a friend that is teaching at university in
- Czechoslovakia. He wants to hook up a modem to the university phone
- system. I'm assuming that he can use the extension line coming in to
- his office to dial out, then with his modem hooked up, he can get the
- modem to grab the connection with an AT command and he's on his way.
- Problems I can forsee will be mainly with the phone system and wiring.
- Could he splice into the phone system and expect the modem (and phone)
- to work? I'm sure the power situation will be a concern. Does anyone
- have any good ideas here? By the way, he has said that there is no
- way to get this info from the university, they're in the dark ages and
- information is not readily shared.

- Thanks,
