AS I continue my shake out of the I/O board, I've run across a problem using my
high speed PPI 9600 baud modem on /t3.

Seems that unless I turn off the local hardware flow control (RTS/CTS), data
isn't received. I can dial, make the connect, get all the nice info that tells
me I have a MNP and v.42 connection. I can also see the xmit light flash on the
modem, so data is getting through.

Flipping thought the Tech manual (nice job, Mark!), I find info to the effect
that hardware hand shaking isn't turned on. To do so, I need only to set the
high bit on the 'type' parameter.

Lessee .... it's '00' now, so that would make it $80, jes?

Reading further, I'm also told there is not software to accomplish this task.

Trying Xmode /t3 type=$80 confirms this. What's a newbie to do?

Is there a way I can do what needs to be done? Am I even on the right track?

Steve
