This does not directly relate to the Amiga, but since this is the only
newsgroup I read consistently, I will post this here.
I have a 9600 U.S. Robotics modem which I would like to connect to my
University's computers at 9600 speed. The only problem is that their modems
are Multitech MicroModemV32's, with CCITT V.32 protocall, which my modem
cannot recognize. My modem is at least two years old (I bought it used) and
I am wondering if there is some type of upgrade or add-on I could get for
my modem to be able to understand the V.32 protocall. Is there? Or do I
have to resign myself to not being able to connect to the university (at
9600 speed)?

You need the ROMs for the 'Dual Standard'. The upgrade is NOT for free, though. Call US Robotics for the details. Telno is inside the HST manual. -- Marco Papa 'Doc' -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= "Xerox sues somebody for copying?" -- David Letterman -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
