H121195 - PC 300/700 MAY FAIL TO CONNECT AT 57.6 BAUD RATE                   
                                                                                
                                                                                
                                                                                
 SYMPTOM:                                                                       
 IBM PC 300 Series 6577/6587, PC 700 Series 6877/6887, and                      
 PC 365 Series 6589 systems with an external modem attached                     
 may fail to connect at a 57.6Kbps baud rate.                                   
                                                                                
 PROBLEM ISOLATION AIDS:                                                        
 This failure does not affect all brands of external modems.                    
                                                                                
 The modem may consistently fail to connect regardless of the                   
 operating system and/or the communication application used.                    
                                                                                
 The system may display a modem not attached or not powered-on                  
 type error message while attempting to connect.  Some                          
 applications may fail to connect without posting an error                      
 message.                                                                       
                                                                                
 The system does not exhibit a failure if the baud rate is set                  
 at a higher rate such as 115.2Kbps or a lower baud rate of                     
 38.4Kbps.                                                                      
                                                                                
 FIX:                                                                           
 Do not replace system hardware.  This is not a system unit                     
 hardware failure.                                                              
                                                                                
 To resolve this failure, set the baud rate of the external                     
 modem to the next higher baud rate (115.2Kbps) or the next                     
 lower baud rate (38.4Kbps).
