If the internal modem is Async only, it will not work.
I might be the only person to say this, but I like BSC for fairly low volume
solutions.  It is easy to set up, and works and is very reliable.  What VAN
are you using.  Most VANS will now support FTP via the internet.  Andy most
VANS are offering discounted rates to do FTP rather than dial up BSC.  The
less equipment they have to support, the better off (and cheaper) they can
offer the service.  You may want to consider changing your EDI to FTP and
use the BSC as a backup.

The new internal ECS is an Async only modem to the best of my knowledge.  I
do not think you can configure a BSC connection on one.  Hey copy your BSC
line description and change the resource to the internal modem.  Then see if
you can save and vary on the line.  If you can, the rest should work.

Damn straight - $1000 for the modem (and min 2 hours @ $250/hr to
install) is ridiculous. I found a supplier on the web, bought 2 replacements
at $100 each and had them overnighted.  EDI was back up 5 minutes after the
box got there; no lost business, slight inconvenience.

I consider it a cheap lesson; now I have a backup.  I am lucky it was a
Monday, which is a slow order day for us.

That said, I appreciate the offer!  

I am also still wondering if the EDI could have been setup to run over the
internal ECS modem somehow . . .
