George, Apple's modem scripts are okay, as long as you have good phone lines, then they have some serious drawbacks. "Very flaky connection" does not really compute on this end <g>, but I'll pass along the same information I shared with another list member who was looking for modem scripts a couple of months ago. The modem scripts listed below will be some of the best ones that you will find anywhere (especially for poor phone lines). Ross is a modem wizard. They are specifically configured for the Apple internal 56k modem. They should work with the internal 56k modem in any Mac (PowerBook G3 Series, B&W G3, iMac, iBook, G4) -- I've used them with my PDQ -- as well as some Global Village modems (those which are V.90/K56Flex, not V.90/x2). And they're free. The only problem is that there is very little explanation with them. The best thing to do is to try them and see which one(s) give you the best results. Depending on what your exact problems are and what you want to accomplish (Do you just want faster throughput? Do you want a more stable connection? Are you having problem with disconnects?), you might want to start with a slow script and work your way up until you start to lose any gain that you have acquired. <http://www.taniwha.org.uk/files/RBScriptsFeb2001.hqx> HTH, Bob -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
