cc:Mail Router for NT

Hi all,

I'm using a HP 200LX to connect to a cc:Mail installation, with a null
modem cable. It has worked better before, but now I don't seem to be
able to connect at all. This is the output from the router, when
trying to connect from the 200LX:

| C:\CCMAIL\Router>C:\CCMAIL\Router\NTROUTER.EXE C:\CCDATA MODEM/PBX COM1 DIAGNOSTICS/F LOG/C:\CCMAIL\Router\ROUTER.LOG

The log files are empty. There are no other error messages anywhere
that I can see.

Anybody recognises anything? Any ideas about things I can try?

Here is the modem file:

| [attributes]
| MODELS=Null
| NULL MODEM=1
| [commands]

And another thing is that I only seem to be able to get a response at
1200 baud (the router default) by not specifying a speed when starting
the router. If I add the speed to the command line (the first line
above), any speed, (and the corresponding setting on the Palmtop) then
there is no connection at all.

It has worked better earlier. I managed to connect at 9600, but that
was a different PC. I am not aware of having changed anything relevant
on either PC or Palmtop.

Any help appreciated.
