Thanks for your reply. I figured it had something do with either the modem
setup under Windows 95, or the settings in HyperTerminal itself. Since I'm
not familiar with Windows 95, I couldn't offer her any suggestions, Anyway
I will forward your reply to her. Maybe she'll be able to connect at 28k8.
