[Herefordshire] external Serial modem

[Julian Robbins]

Virtually ANY external serial port based hardware modem should work. We
recently got 7 56k modems of this type together and they all worked
without any extra configuration.

So I think your modem may be duff ... :-(

The Hayes and diamond ones are especiaaly good
