- OK, I give up.
-
- I'm trying to connect a modem to a XYPLEX 1500 server....
- and run SLIP. It works fine when I connect the local ISBN phone
- network to the server; but when I connect a modem, all I get on the
- remote machine is 'bad IP checksum' or 'can't open connection, timeout'.
-
- I'm using SLIP8250 and TELBIN on the remote PC; modem on the server is
- a MultiTech v.32, on the PC it's a DigiCom Scout+. Connection is at
- 9600 baud/V42.
-
- I can see 'ping' packets arrive at the PC, but something is missing
- 'cause they generate 'bad IP checksum' in TELBIN. If I try to open
- a connection, I get a 'timeout' almost immediately...
-
- So what's the deal? Flow control? The XYPLEX has only 8 wires in its
- serial connection, so you get DCD/DTR or CTS/RTS, but not both. Does
- SLIP work with XON/XOFF? well...I guess so, cause it works with the
- ISBN 'modem'....
-
- Any suggestions?
