Twisted RS232 (host to host) cable, special dialup script in Winblows,
which replaces ATDT with ATO. There are some other tricks with L95, you
need to find someone who can make such scripts. Linux no problems. You do
not have the Linux wait for ring, instead, have ATA directly in the chat
script. You must get the DNS thingy in pppd right, and sometimes L95
requires a ping command issued at the command line (20 of them) to get the
DNS working. Don't ask me why.
good luck,
