[QUOTE=sdh68k;20550663]Simple answer: you *DON'T*.

As mentioned many many times, *even in the OP*, the BBS only has a limited number of connections available. People who know how to connect to a BBS are already doing it - no need for you to get in the way and slow things up for them.[/QUOTE]You have to dial the number with a modem with a program like SyncTERM and you have to manually turn the modem bauld rate all the way down to ~9600bps.

I figured that out, then my laptop battery died when I had just connected :saddowns:

[QUOTE=Naburu;20550497]Hey I had to sign up to let you guys know that Public law 83-703 has to do with the Atomic energy act of 1954 ([url]http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/nuregs/staff/sr0980/v1/sr0980v1.pdf[/url]) and Public Law 99-474 has to do with the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act of 1986 ([url]http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d099:HR04718:@@@L&summ2=m&[/url]). Make what you will from that. lol[/QUOTE]Clearly when we dial the phone number, the energy transmitted to the telephone relay station is entering a nuclear-powered wormhole and coming out in the late 1990s, so we're actually time-travelling to access the server. :science:
