Index of Subjects Hi John. You're using this Commodore 64 to telnet to videocam.net.au? That doesn't sound right. As to why your Commodore 64 is having problems with a connection to Chebucto, there could be a number of reasons. If anyone else on this list is a Commodore 64 expert, please feel free to speak up. My first thought is there is some sort of modem problem. Can you try the C64 with a different modem? Does this make a difference? Modems do not age well and are not a robust component. They can be lobotomized or made inoperative by voltage surges on the phone line or just plain age.
