Good morning:

 I have a US Robotics 28800 modem attached to a DEC Alpha 3000 model 400
which dials out OK BUT when answering incoming calls evyerthing appears
OK ... ie. I get CONNECTED but there is no "login:" line. When I press
the keyboard keys , the red "receive" light on the modem goes flashes
but still nothing gets echoed back on the terminal window.

 what's wrong and how can I better debug what is happening on the line?
 does anybody have a "checklist" I could go through?

Particulars:

  - the modem works fine when connected to a DEC alpha 255 in the next room.
    and this is using the connection at 38400 speed

Any info would be appreciated,
