	Hi.  Believe me when I tell you I've sought every other source for an
answer before turning to you and wasting your bw...

	I'm attempting to install from FTP.  I get through everything fine, but
when it comes time for the final step, connecting to my ISP, I can't.

	I ALT-F3 from the final screen and type 'term' at the prompt.  I don't
get a result for any AT commands and I've tried everything else.  It's
just a solid blink with no answer.  Not a lockup, as I can move freely
from the final screen and even close the term, but that's it.

	I appreciate any help you can lend.

James
