Depending on your modem model, there's probably an AT command which will give this information. For my USR Courier, it's ATI6. My older modem was a Cardinal internal which IIRC used a Rockwell chipset, and used the command AT&V1. If I reset the Courier (ATZ), it will forget the speed. To get around this you can either use cu from the uucp package, or modify the modem init string in minicom from ATZ to ATI6Z. your pal dave -- Dave Thayer Denver, Colorado USA [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
