I'm having a great deal of trouble getting my Mac Performa 6115CD and US
Robotics Sportster 28.8 to work with my PPP Internet account. Basically, I
suppose I need to obtain the proper init string, but I don't even know if
that's it.

The computer came with a Global Village TelePort Gold II (14.4kbps) which
connects and works fine. I recently bought the Sportster, but I can't seem
to get a connection. The modem dials fine, and the host answers, and after
the connect sounds the speaker goes silent, but the connection doesn't
work properly. I can get the "CONNECT 28800" but then only garbage.

Does anyone out there have a similar configuration? What did you do to
make it work?

Thanks a lot in advance,

Steve Shankman (please email directly to shankman@net99.net)

p.s. What fax software do you use?
