So when I am in the BBS program and send 'ATNET1' to the DB-X "modem" I do get
an "OK," which would make me think it supports it.  To verify this, I sent an
unknown string, 'ATBAG', and got "ERROR."

However, if I set the host mode init string to:

ATNET1|~~AT(actual init string)|

Which should send the ATNET1, wait a couple of seconds, and then send the
real init.

I then used the telnet protocol to connect and I still got the same double-CR
issue I had before.  So apparently it recognizes ATNETx as a valid string but
otherwise knows not what it means.... or I need to send it a different way.

Unlike BinkleyTerm, the BBS software *doesn't* have a separate pre-init that
can be defined.
