I`m not really sure what is the speed setting I need to use to connect this modem to a laptop.
I have tried 9600 and 38400 but the modem would not reply to the AT inputs. (I know the cable is fine)

Also I´d like to know the AT command to set flow control on a surfer motorola modem. I have tried at%h1 and at*fl but I get an ERROR message either way.

Thanks.

The US robotics modem mdel number is 0701 and I am making reference to the hyperterminal speed.

The Motorola modem is from the voice surfr series, model 3456

Not sure about the Motorola modem. If this is a software modem, there is no "real" flow control as the port is virtual.

For the USR - the modem should respond to AT at any baud rate so long as the DIP switches for modem are set properly (the default settings).
If you type
ATE1
you should get OK; you should also then see what you type.

What lights appear on the modem when you enter Hyperterminal?

Aloha! Richard.

Thanks for your posting Richard

well I have tried nearly all the speeds allowed by hyperterminal and the USR would not respond in any of them
I press at and hit enter and the cursor goes to the left and keeps blinking under the a.

I`m not sure what are the lights names. I gotta double check that.

The problem was that the equipment I was trying to get access to, would not allow that access without admin user privileges.
