I do hope Cameron will not mind if I quote from the Hyper Link documentation.

[start quote]
For Internet access through HLPP, these elements are additionally required:

  a.. A Unix shell account (either through null-modem connection to a Unix
server or direct dialup shell) with Perl 5.0 or later. SLIP and PPP are not
supported. To check if Perl is installed/available on your server, type
perl -v at a shell prompt to display its version.
  b.. A CMD Turbo232, CMD SwiftLink, or other 100% compatible ACIA cartridge
interface is strongly recommended. 1200bps through the user port is not a
supported configuration and no technical support is available for this mode.
It only operates in the original 2.5 release, not 2.5a or 2.5e.
  c.. A Hayes-compatible modem for dialin, or a null-modem adaptor for a
direct null-modem connection, connected to your interface.
