As stated before on this list, all that is required is a NULL-MODEM
adaptor from Radio Shack (Best to buy the 9 pin NULL MODEM), and maybe a
9-25 pin converter and possibly a gender-bender. With these three items,
you can connect to any external modem and even to any serial printer on
the market.
The reason I say buy the 9 pin NULL MODEM is because I had problems trying
to use a 25 pin NULL MODEM, but it may be due to someone in this office
hacking it. It is better to have the 9 pin anyways, because you could
potentially interface two omnigos together with a 9 pin NULL MODEM.
