since you have a laptop w/win 95 ,you should have a serial port ,from your serial port you will need aa 9 pin female to a 25 pin male serial cable, you then need a 355AF adapter( you can purchase from Metroline,about 49$) from adapter a 8 conductor cord D8W to your admin port into your legend, will get you going, it dosn't take much disc space,can't rem

There is an easy way to connect if your laptop has a modem. This is how I do it. Using my laptop modem, I call my system on my primary phone number from an outside line. When I answer, I "transfer to *10" which sends my modem connection to the administrator of the system. Then, you hit "connect" on your Winspm and you are connected! Below is the actual instruction from the help section of winspm.

"Internal, External: These connection methods use your PC’s modem to access a communications system. If you have more than one modem installed on your machine, you will be presented with a TAPI device selection screen. This will allow you to specify which modem you want to use to connect. There is no difference between these two connection types, except that it allows you to have 2 different dial strings for a site. (i.e. ‘*10’)"

Hope this helps.
