[comp.sys.att] Connect an Intel 9600ex modem to an AT&T 3B2/300

Hello NetPeople:-)

	I just purchased an Intell 9600ex modem for my Net Feed.  However,
I can not get it to work with my AT&T 3B2/300.  Since the modem will work
fine connect to a terminal, I think that it might be cabeling problem.

	I do have it set as a Hayes 9600 type device.

	I simply changed the Systems, Devices, and inittab files.  Then unpluged
my 2400 and plugged in my new 9600.  Well:-( I am still sending at 2400:-(

Tank you in advance,
James D. Corder

James, I had some growing pains with my Intel 9600, and found the Intel
Support folks to be tremendously helpful in resolving them.  Their number
1-800-538-3373, or they can be reached at intel_support@mcimail.com.  They
also have a BBS, and I think the number is in the manual (which isn't in
front of me at the moment.  (If you really want to $pend $omething to
contact them, they also have a support forum on Compuserve.)

My own guess is, like yours, a cabling problem, with the second thought
that the modem initialization isn't set right.  Whichever, the folks at
Intel, I'm sure, will help you out.
