That's great you're online with the UDS-10.  Are you noticing any issues with it, or does everything just work great after the initial setup?  What speed are you running at, 9600 or did you bump it up a bit faster?

 k> Thought I would share my setup here, as there are few

 k> find their IP address to dial.

Thank you for sharing that great writeup for configuring the UDS-10 for BBS telnet use!  There's definitely enough to the process to make documentation like this really valuable.
