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.

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. -- <<<< insert standard disclaimer here >>>> riddle@hoss.unl.edu | University of Nebraska postmaster%inns@iugate.unomaha.edu | College of Law mike.riddle@f27.n285.z1.fidonet.org | Lincoln, Nebraska, USA

Then unpluged >my 2400 and plugged in my new 9600. Well:-( I am still >sending at 2400:-( I once plugged a Trailbalzer Plus into a 3B2/4000; it was a multiperson effort because I could not find any standard AT&T modular to DB-25 adapters whose wiring was acceptable to me; I ended up wiring one from scratch while the operator tweaked the config to match my specification. Unfortunately, I don't remember what he changed in the configurations! Still, if the modem works at 9600 talking to a terminal, then it's not likely to be a serious cabling problem. -- UUCP: watmath!xenitec!zswamp!root | 602-66 Mooregate Crescent Internet: root@zswamp.fidonet.org | Kitchener, Ontario FidoNet: SYSOP, 1:221/171 | N2M 5E6 CANADA Data: (519) 742-8939 | (519) 741-9553 The mile is traversed not by a single leap, but by a procession of coherent steps; those who insist on making the trip in a single element will be failing long after you and I have discovered new worlds. -- me
