When I try to run communications packages under Windows, the programs
seem to hang after anywhere from 15 seconds to several minutes of
connection to the remote host. This happens with both Procomm and the 
Terminal utility that comes with Windows.
The modem usually requires a hard reset to free it after this happens.
I've tried all three modes of Windows with the same result. I am also
confidant that the usual parameters are set correctly (stop bits,
parity, baud, terminal emulation type, etc.) since everything works OK
under DOS. Does anyone have any idea what is going on?
