[Duo2400] How to get files on/off this thing?

[Andrew Prince]

Hi Tom:

If the desktop is a Windows or Linux PC, you'll have some issues to
overcome... Mostly incompatible communication without more stuff than you
have...

If the desktop PC is a Mac (hopefully) and is of an old enough vintage to
have an Appletalk port, you can get a couple of Phone-net adapters (Farallon
and Asante and who knows who else made them) and a piece of phone-cord and
localtalk them together. I know that The Computer Store in Portland Oregon
still carries phone-net adapters, probably others do too... Or even just
find an localtalk cable. If you live in the Portland Metro area, I could
give you a set of phone-net adapters or an localtalk cable, and show you how
to connect them.

Visit http://www.atpm.com/network/setup/localtalk_serial.html for more
info...
