[comp.sys.amiga.hardware] Compatability

This is my first post, so bear with me please.  I have an A3000 and
the supramodem2400zi and VLT and I can't seem to get them to work
together under 1.3 or 2.0.  As I am a new owner it's quite likely that
I am doing something wrong, but the software that came w/ the modem has
a timestamp 6 mo. before the A3000 was released, could there be a problem
w/ the device file?  Just guessing anyway I figure someone on this net knows
or knows someone who might so...
By the way, C= didn't bother to send a working motherboard with this machine
2 mo. ago I just got it back last week so I wouldn't rule out the possibility
that there's another hardware problem.

Thanks in advance
Dan

PS I love the machine, but C= has some really bad policies and crappy
customer relations.

"Can't seem to get them to work together under either 1.3 or 2.0" is kind-of
hard to debug remotely... 8^) You would have to be a little more specific
in order for me to grok what the problem might be. For example, does VLT
come up okay? Any funny error messages? Which version of VLT? Did you select
the right device for VLT to use? Do you get any garbage characters at all?
What speed, parity and handshake are you using? Does the modem echo any
characters? That sort of thing...
