In a message dated 96-11-20 00:16:23 EST, you write:
<< I have the same modem:USRobotics Sportster VI 28.8 External .I've got a
male to male adapter and a null modem too.I use the genuine ti graph-link.
When i type on my ti-92 (in f-term) , the modem flashes but when i send the
command atz or whatever , nothing happens.No response as "Ok"...
Also i chat with my computer in terminal mode, it works fine.
I can't find the the DTR Data Terminal Ready toggle switch . Where is it ?

Look the switch I was talking about is in the back of the modem it is switch
#1 all you do is push it to the down state and you should have no problem.
If you still have problems after this EMail me personally at the below
address `cause we don't need any more modem problem mail in the list, I think
we pretty much beat that into the ground <g>
