I need to move to a higher speed modem on my C64. I bought a
RS232 adapter for it that connect to the user IO port. So I can con-
nect it to my US Robotics Courier 2400e modem. I need to write some
routines so C64 can control and use the modem. So I thought I ask the
net before writing the routines if anyone has done this or tried to
and be willing share their efforts (so as not to re-invent the wheel).
Also any helpful suggestion would be very much appreciated. Thank you!

I used to use a 2400 baud on a C64, and it really didn't work to well. It was OK, but the modem had a hard time understanding the AT commands, because the 64 can only just barely run 2400. If I remember right, Comm Term 3++ was the best at 2400. One way to solve the modems problem of not getting the commands is to send the dial command at 1200, then hit a key to interrupt the dialing. Then switch to 2400, and hit A/ until the modem recognizes it, and starts dialing. This worked on the Courier 2400, but won't work on a Hayes 2400 it stays at 1200, until it gets an AT at 2400.
