From the rear of the Modem (ethernet port is at the back of the modem) pinouts are:


Gnd
Tx
Vcc (3.3v)
Rx
Gnd

MAX232 uses 4 pins usually from rear down so front Gnd pin isn't used.

Hello, if you're looking for the download section then you will find it in the private fta section.
if you look in the download section of the forum and then you look for a thread called "Some Download links" then you will find the downloads of what you need.
when you look in that thread in the private FTa section then you will find what you need on the thread and if you still cant find it then try searching for it or look for it in the other section but i have already mentioned what it is called in Private Fta section of the forum.

hope this helps.

Disable console output

[afcwomble]

Your modem is on the new software so won't take p option. Have a look here:
New firm to un brick 250 s and 255 s

Download the console unlocker and SoftJtag to get the p option back-then you can flash via hyperterminal as tuts.

[Toxic]

Thanks for the input but I cant get the console unlocker to work right

[Toxic]

[Toxic]
