When I read this, I said no-way. Then I found low end Mac's info: >A word of warning: the serial ports don't support hardware >handshaking, which is required for all modems 9600 bps and faster. >You must use a comm slot modem for good throughput. As a final test, use PPP or Modem control panel to set you speed to 9600 and confirm things work at that speed. -- -- Mr. PopMan - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - "Does anybody want to play a game of pinball?"
