I tried the settings, as you suggested, but Net-Tamer didn't work.
When I tested COM2 with the comtest program, it said that the port
didn't exist or wasn't responding. This latter information is
consistant with other diagnostic programs I've run on this XT:
there's only one COM port and one LPT port.

Under the modem all the commands are listed. One of the commands (as
I've shown in my initialization string) is "Bn", and with this command
it says, as follows:
Bn n=0 v.32 mode; CCITT answer sequence
n=1 HST mode; Bell answer tone
So I've included B0 in my string, whether or not it works. What's
interesting is that, just a moment ago, I tested the string and
received CPS readings downloading two different websites of 361 and
530 -- both would seem to imply that some compression is taking
place (at least). I'm still getting the "CONNECT 2400/ARQ" remark,
though.
