You're sure you have the right one? A small probably pointless thought; if it fails at 115k, it seems it might be choking on something. Check the routing of your modem lead; it might just be picking something up. >2. The documentation suggests that the connect speed is displayed. The >first couple of times I tried to connect, it worked OK but did not display >a connect speed. Mine definitely does- "Connect 28800 LAPM/ARQ" is what I think it says. This is with a Courier. Does your modem correctly report connect speed in something like ZTerm? That's a useful test. >3. During the connect procedure, the dialog box actually displays the >userid and password held in my connect script Mine does too- they flash by in the box. I've not tried to prevent it, as there seems to be no point. It's not the best possible feature, I agree. >FYI I'm using a 6100/66 with Mac TCP2.06. Lucky chap. I'm using a 6100/60 with MacTCP 2.04. But it all seems to work well. I think it's worth putting this in the newsgroup rather than in mail, in case anybody else is kicked into commenting... Peter
