I have no link. The port (not BNC) is not connected to any
network.

I have a V.90 modem connected to port 2. I wonder if all modems
give this kind of message or just this one (Explorer V.90 Ex).
Incidentally I was having problems using rates above 38400. Does
anybody have problems communicating above 57600, e.g. 115200?

Thanks,
