@tschak I’m sorry for what you’re going through, and wish I could help.

It may seem small to you, but I would like you to know that Fujinet has brought a lot of enjoyment to my life!

@acn128 On some modems, it sets the line speed to 300.

I’m only guessing with the rest of this, so take it with a grain of salt. It’s possible you need to get an older modem, because that one may not have the ability to do 300 baud. If AT&N0 works (for automatically select), your modem probably can’t do 300, but if that also gives an error, maybe your modem has some other way to set the line speed.

@acn128 did you try AT&N1 ?
@ebariaux The cable looks the same as on my expansion unit for an IBM PC (5150). Here’s a page about it: https://www.computinghistory.org.uk/det/21352/IBM-5161/

@outfrost It’s not mine actually — I saw it elsewhere. Happy to provide credit if I can figure out whose it is.

@Infosecben @jerry @lerg Hah, my apologies, that was probably a little insensitive. I forget that everybody who’s anybody in Infosec is here!

I was mainly making a reference to @lerg talking about blinky boxes rather than trying to name and shame one in particular! :)

@jerry I do think Andrew’s turd numbering scheme should be given serious consideration. Will there be committees I hope?

@Cal OK, I agree that this (and other IOT devices) should ideally be on a separate network.

I think we will just have to agree to disagree on whether that warrants a “stay away from this” type of warning, which is how I read your initial post.

@Cal It seems a little unlikely that someone is going to try to hack my Atari 800? I’m not sure what your concern is here.

Supply chain attacks are a thing, sure, but why would anyone target this project for one? All of the code runs on an ESP32 or on systems that predate the web.
