The phone gives up talking to the PC in a fraction of the time it takes to give up if the PC is not within range. I have tried limiting the data rates to 9600 bps as well as 115kbps. Control panel reports the PC IR hardware and the T300 modem as working and I have loaded the current IR driver from the SE site, although it is supposedly only compatible from Win98 on. Anyone had success with a similar setup?	neddy (2192)

I found it recently. But I haven't done anything with it yet. (I'm not sure whether that it is suported for W95b or W95c .. I have an idea that it's 95b so you might be OK).	Graham L (2)
