Kevin,

Thanks for your reply... I dusted off my Visual Studio and compiled the Visual Basic program VBTerm.vbp (from the MSDN library). Ran VBTerm and can get into the SMiRFv2 config... So far, so good... I haven't got the pair to recognize each other yet ("Remote Configuration Change Failed!"), I'm making progress...

[EDIT] Update: Everything is working fine now that Hyperterminal is not in the loop. Thanks again.[/EDIT]

Thanks for your help.
