- DOS ??? Neee... Bill, I think you really need some rest :-);
-
- Set your modem to autobaud to any of lower speeds; set your
- Devices file to a lower speed; cu to modem; then ATS50=6&W (or
- whatever magic incatation is nescessary to teach your modem to use
- only 57600 bps), and disconect; then change Devices and other
- files (like inittab and gettydefs; on my ISC I set them to 38400,
- cheating... ) and you are back in the bussiness... This same way
- my Worldblazer is working at 115,200 like a charm - THANKS, UVE!!!!
