Very good, Mark. I didn't know that. Thanks.

Chris,

The NinoTNC is a USB based device. It uses a USB-Serial converter chip right on board the modem. You can pull that out and talk "proper" serial if you want but nobody does.

Thanks for the response, Ted. Very encouraging.

I must ask though, how are you connecting the NinoTNC on USB to your computer? Are you using a RS-232 to USB converter? And more importantly, how are you addressing the USB port in the bpq.cfg file? I'm only familiar with the TYPE=ASYNC command that I use with my existing node with a KPC-3+ in KISS mode with a RS-232 cable.?

I¡¯ve been running on w10/64 for a couple of years, no problem.?
Using kpc3 on a hardware serial port and NinoTNC on usb.?
?
I also use the same pc to host a file share for a vehicle maintenance record program I use, only because I¡¯ve been too lazy to move it back to my file server.?

Hello All,
I searched the group messages but before I commit myself, I wanted to ask the members if they think I'm going to encounter any problems installing BPQ32 on a Dell Optoplex 360 running windows 10.

This computer model has a PCIXpress slot that will allow me to install a DIEWU multi I/O controller card (Model AX99100),? yielding 4 ports. That would be cool...

Any and all comments appreciated.
