Netserial _is_ the windows virtual modem from PCMicro, and is configured as
preferred.

Yes, for example I can connect to Janis, and get correct mail session answer,
but she denied filerequest on her 1:1/0 address, so it was refused. I have
tried too to 2:230/152, Gert, and I can connect, but I can see on the screen,
I startup his BBS, before I get redirected to his mailer. When I get
redirected to the mailer, it think a lot, and then drop the carrier. The same
on 2:230/0, Benny - my uplink! So i'm not sure if it is my setup there is
okay, and theres there is wrong, or different.

Yes, I used BNU in the start of my modem days, but then I try ADF, and get
better performance with that, and since then I have used ADF.

I have tried to install OS/2, but get errordump when the system restart after
install :( Maybe the HD or the pc is too fast!
Have you filerequest on some of your lines? Where FD is online? So I could try
to request from your system, and see how it work against you. Okay?
But for now - thanks for the help!
