>I know, that this will *not* help you, but here in Europe the nodes of CIS are often so busy, that it is *usual* by now, to have to dial twice to get one connect!< If the line were too busy, the CI$ modem should refuse the call (i.e. you should get a "BUSY" answer). Otherwise, you are charged for a useless call!!! >Anoter possibility is, that the quality of your phoneline has fallen. In that case your modem and the one of CIS will reduce speed. Only to *not* exchange pure garbage. This will happen automatically.< That's it. Sometimes I get a 9600 connection automatically. That's part of the "handshake" process between the two modems, and it hapens until you get the CONNECT message from the modem. Rafa <Motorola Inside> …via AutoPilot 1.80 from Berlin
