[comp.sys.apple] Need help setting up modem

tomk@pro-grouch.cts.com (Tom Kelly) (11/22/89)

 Have you had any trouble connecting to ComputerEdge BBS?
 I can connect ok at 300 baud but
 I can't connect at 1200 baud.   I get garbage and disconnected.
 I suspect my dip switch settings.
 The following is my current hardware and switch settings.
 Apple ][e (Hong Kong clone)
 Super Serial Card aka SSC (clone from Nexo)
 SSC DIP SWITCHES set as follow
 SW1-1  OFF           SW2-1    ON
 SW1-2   ON           SW2-2    ON
 SW1-3   ON           SW2-3   OFF 
 SW1-4   ON           SW2-4    ON
 SW1-5   ON           SW2-5   OFF
 SW1-6   ON           SW2-6    ON
 SW1-7   ON           SW2-7   OFF
 MultiTech MT212AD (100% "Hayes compatable modem")
 Modem DIP SWITCHES set as follow
 SW#             Condition
 1      down     DTR forced on at all times 
 2      up       Verbose (word) Responces
 3      down     Enable Command Responses
 4      up       Enable Command Character Echo
 5      up       Enable Automatic Answer
 6      down     Carrier Detect and DSR always on
 7      up       Synchronous Operation
 8      down     Enable Command Mode
 -        -      CTS always on
 These settings seem to work ok with most BBS but some give garbage at 
connect and work ok after pressing return while others will not work
at all as described above for ComputerEdge.
 Can anyone help me?
PS I am using Point.to Point as my terminal program set to 8N1.
