I picked up a WiModem232 last year, and have been using my ROM 255 IIc with ProTerm 3.1 and the WiModem232 to connect to BBSes for a while now with no problems.
The other day I upgraded my IIc to ROM4x so I could connect a SmartPort hard drive. Now when I disconnect from a BBS, the computer freezes up until I toggle power on the modem to reboot the WiModem. Same thing when I tried a ROM3 in the IIc. The modem also froze up when I tried sending a command to change the baud rate, but so far all the other commands seem to be working. I can't just switch back to ROM255 to test it, as you have to make a minor alteration the the IIc motherboard (solder bridge a pad, cut another one, so it is not easily reversable.
Anyone have a similar experience or know of a solution, or know if there some change in the later ROMs that mess with the modem connection?
I set up ProTerm 3.1 and the WiModem as per the instructions for the IIc on this forum.
Thanks!
