Re: [Plug] New Modem--Troubleshooting help Needed
|
Dan,
There are various communications programs for DOS that you can use, ranging from
public domain to commercial-grade software. I have a little program called DSZ (an
external Zmodem protocol) that includes a basic terminal mode; I used to use it a lot
for testing communications. It's limited in its port support, though, so if you need to
use non-standard IRQ's, you should use something more powerful, like ProComm, Qmodem,
or Telix. I have at least two of the three. I might have some DOS comm utilities at
work. --Josh
