I had my 128K Mac upgraded to a Mac+ yesterday.
I noticed that the DB9 connector I was using
for the modem had been changed to an 8 pin
circular thing.

Included with the upgrade package was a 6" long adaptor
cable with a female DB9 at one end and a funny circular
connector at the other.

Great! I thought. I proceeded to connect up my old modem
cable with the DB9 to the adaptor cable.

Arrrgghh! I get no DTR light on my modem.  If anyone else has
had this experience I'd be grateful to share in the solution.

I used the following pinouts in making my modem cable:

DB9 Pin    DB25 Pin
  1          1
  3          7
  5          2
  6         20
  7          8
  9          3
			    Thanks
