I know it is not very usefull, but I use sernet (2.25) between the WinXP PC with QPC and the Q60, and between the same PC and the original QL and everything is working perfectly. As a cable between the PC and Q60 I use a standard serial cable female-female linked to com2(PC) and ser1(Q60) bought in a computer shop. Between the PC and the QL I use a Laplink Cable from the PC(com1) to the QL(ser2) , on the QL side the Laplink cable is joined to the QL modem cable. Speed is set to 115200 between PC and Q60 and 19200 between PC and QL It works , maybe I am just lucky -)
