Hmmm, I'll try it, but I have my doubts.

You see, the modem actually does work in the sense that you can send
'AT' strings to it and get 'OK''s back.

It's just that it never can dial and make a connection successfully.  It
seems a more subtle problem than I would think you would have from an
PNP difficulty.

All the same, thanks!  :-)
