Hello,

Yes good idea! After getting my laptop I purchased a TNC2-Multi from
IfD Germany which can be modified to work 19k2; It comes out of the
box completely funktionnal, not as some kit kat TNC which need
modules to be added.

I tested AGWPE and found Flex32 more efficient, especially with the
soundcard (Soundmodem driver for Flex necessary).

For soundcard action or Host mode I use an UC232 type adapter but it
doesn't work with the TNC in 6pack mode (Flex32).

Terminal programs are easy to find too, and Winpuke is not the best!

Paxon is the simplest and the easiest to work with (V.2.00.1114 runs
with AGWPE also) you will just have to register on the home page to
access to the download page for the latest version, but if you don't
want to use AGWPE, the 1.00.1042 version is good too. It's really
worth trying it when you have access to any BBS type except FBB!

WPP is a good compromise if your BBS is an FBB type (the worst) and
it uses a bull. list as Winpuke but supports also Bin, BinSplit and
Didadit data transfer protocols (Paxon too).

You can find all infos and links at http://www.uspacket.net/

For WPP, you'll have to go to: http://wpp.dc6hb.de/
The site is a little bit messy because it's in german and the english
side of the portal is really not overcrowded...

Thanks for the bringing WPP to my attention. I downloaded it. But I can't
seem to find any English docs.. Any there any English docs? Or will I have
to learn German?

try Babelfish http://world.altavista.com/ for starters. It or
similar online translators may be of some use. It may also make for
entertaining translations which will still be usable. I notice it
allows a small amount of text input or a pointer to a web page. Try it
on a few web pages, then, if it looks workable, you could probably put
the docs up to a web page of your own long enough to evaluate the
translation.
