Computone ATvantage/Intelliport - Microport V/AT Driver Needed!

I'm faced with a dilemma.  I have obtained, from a friend, a
Computone ATvantage-4.  The board is in good shape and has
Interactive/AT&T Release 3.2 drivers included.  Here is an excerpt
from one of the NOTES_*  files:

> Operating Systems Supported:
>
> IBM Xenix V
> SCO Xenix V 286 (version 2.2 & higher)
> SCO Xenix V 386 (version 2.2 & higher) (including vpix) (AT & PS2)
> Interactive 386 (including vpix) (AT & PS2)
> AT&T 386        (including Simul_Task)
> Microport 386   (including Dos Merge)
> Microport 286

I need the Microport 286 (better known as V/AT) drivers for the
ATvantage/Intelliport (both boards use the same driver distributions).

I have spent the better part of a week playing phone tag with Computone
trying to get the driver disk.  They "No longer support Microport 286
and are unable to provide the driver disk."  I'm certainly glad that I
didn't spend good money a while back and need a replacement disk due
to unforseen circumstances!  I'm not even going to get into what I
think of Computone's technical support department.

I even tried Microport to see if they had one lying around.  No dice.

Anyway, if you have, or know someone who has what looks like this
driver I would really like to hear from you.  I would REALLY like to
get my new modem pumping 14.4K vice 9600...

Thanks in advance!

Chris

I TRIED to write you via E-mail, I will post.

I TRIED to warn you away from AT-4 card.  It WILL NOT RUN THE MODEM AT
19200 BAUD.  It will work GREAT for a TERMINAL though.  You will need a
custom cable to use a modem.  Do Not use a standard null modem.  Do you
have the one with RJ-45's?  You will need a slightly different cable.

9600 is MAX baud on ATVantage boards.
