I have another alternative that more scary but gives a solid connection and locks the line into the xjack. Remove the PCMCIA slot cover r and hang it off the network dongle. This gives the network card enough play to allow the phone line to lock in. In addition you can remove the first couple of millimeters off the front of the phone cable. I do not recommend the above but it works for me. Martin P. Smith msmith@netcom.COM On Mon, 14 Nov 1994, John H.
