Anyone know of a solution to a problem that I am having with my serial
ports on the 3/80.

If hardware flow control is on and the carrier is down, I can't get
a response from the modem that I have the port connected to. 
If I send the modem ATI4, it will return the current NVRAM settings.
The receive data light blinks just as normal but nothing is received from
the port.

Is this normal?? er.. correct.

Please reply by mail to s3113@nait.ab.ca

Thanks in Advance.
