I have an old 1200 Baud Apple Modem. It works fine on a MacPlus. But on my Mac II I have the following problem. When I dial a number say atdt 123 4567 then it rings and when it is picked up the the message "CONNECT" comes up and THEN THE VERY SAME SECOND THE MODEM HANGS UP. This happens each and every time. Any clues why this is happening?

Does the macII cable have the line for DTR? At any rate, I have seen this before. The modem does not pay attention to the presence of DTR until it is CONNECTed, then it hangs up on absence of DTR. It was the cable in *my* case. Of course you may be able to configure it not to care about DTR. -- uucp: {decwrl,uunet}!eda!jim Jim Budler internet: jim@eda.com EDA Systems, Inc.
