Re: Null Modem SLIP Connection
plip is less than serial, serial will shrink as speed increases, both
depend on the quality of cable. DO NOT attempt a link betwen machines in
different buildings or on completely different power circuits as the
difference in ground potential may fry the serial ports. For long distance
connections over cable, use a differential method such as RS-422.
