You were right bout this, however now although the phone shows that
the data call has been answered (= connected to the GSM Interworking
Unit (GIWU) I guess) I still can't seem to reach beyond that.

OK, set the comms for 9600 Asynch RLP on.

try the 0845's and see if it makes any difference.

Afraid not - I still don't seem to get as far a a final connect
message. The GIWU sems to drop the call eventually.

Hmm, perhaps I'll x-post to demon.tech.modems and see if anyone in
there can help.
