I am in need of help.  I just recently acquired a Cardinal internal 9600
v32/42/42bis modem and installed it in my bbs machine running WWIV.  And I have
2 major problems, was wondering if someone could help me out to solve them.

1) I need a full setup on the modem so that all users can call at different
   speeds.  I am running WWIV v4.20e, with the com port opened at 19200.  I have   a setup file for it under WWIV, but I don't think that it is totally    
   correct.

2) A wierd problem - when my board goes to do a net dialout to another WWIV
   board, I am unable to connect to the board, even though the other modem
   answers and generates the right tones.  But, and here is the wierdness,
   if I load Telix and dial the board and get a connect, then log off, exit 
   Telix and reload the board - I can then connect to it doing a net dialout.
   If I reset the modem or people call in, then do a force out, I am unable 
   to connect again.  


Any help on this one would be greatly appreciated - in a major way.
