In response to Bob Pearl's MPP
problems I would like to mention my
own experience.
I own an Atari 130XE, AVATEX
1200 HC modem, Star NX10 printer, and
run 850 EXPRESS software.
I am also using PR INTERFACE.
With the exception of the modems
and the software (and 850 EXPRESS) looks
very similar to MPPEXPRESS our two
systems are the same. I have no
difficulties at all with this set up.
Therefore, I don't think that your
problem lies in your power supply.
My suggestion, (and I have no
desire to contradict the sysop) is
that either one of your cables is
defective, or there is aa problem with
your modem.
I had an MPP1000E
modem that I was running "SMART
TERMINAL" software on. Although it ran
fairly well, I did find that the 300
baud rate was very suseptable to
static on the phone line, as most
long duration downloads were totally
unuseable.
I recommend, and I know that they
cost, is a 1200baud modem (Hayes
compatable is nice). I would, however,
check my cables before I did anything
else. Look for shorts and OPENS.

Far be it from me to hide an
alternate viewpiont, especially if it
could be right!
