PsCommUtil really looks at beast as if it is working at 56K {Personally I would not be surprised.} try the following. goto http://www.tucows.com go into the Macintosh pages and goto communications utilities. Look for Z-Term. Download it and use it to talk to the terminal window of the Net Yaroze {PSX_NY} at 9600 bps, type in "dir" and watch the scroll. Set up Zterm to work at 9600-8-N-1 {take your time it's there somewhere...} Switch to 57600 bps by typing in "baud 57600" at the terminal window. Setr the termal speed to 57600 in Z-Term. Do the "dir" again. Watch the improvement. Switch to 115600 at the terminal window, and change Z-Term accordingly. "dir" again. WOW huh? How I found out the impact of PsCommUtil. -sean
