I'm playing around with my new favorite toy, a Performa 631 and am trying to see if I can get the CommSlot modem from a 6300 to work in it.

I vaguely remember a while back about some simple commands that, when typed into a ClarisWorks communication document, could check the modem's status, etc...

...anyone?

I hope you know that those CommSlot modems bog down the CPU, as they are partly a software modem.

Because most modems are Hayes compatible, I would try the Hayes command set. See:

Just remember to type "AT" in front of every command.

That's besides the point...
