I ran minicom:
ATDT410-727-0315
<cr> in response to CONNECT
responded to login with MSN/davidturetsky (plain davidturetsky was rejected)
responded to password with password
Got:
Entering PPP Session.
IP address is 63.24.126.61
MTU is 1524
somewhere in this sequence the server responded with:
CONNECT 37000/ARQ/V90/LAPM/V42BIS (as best as I could jot it down before it
disappeared)
and
UQKT2 tnt1.baltimore.md.da.uu.net
So it seems that I got a good connection
It then just sat there, and when I hit any key, it responded with a lot of
curly braces and things and disconnected, but if I entered nothing, the
connection remained
