[QUOTE="mad_macs, post: 1716887, member: 334614"] [b]Different OSX version?[/b] I ran into a similar problem many years ago with a compatibility issue with a OS driver connecting with certain types of fax machines. It was subtle enough to make a connection but not finish a handshake. When it did connect it would garble the transmission. Backdating the OS actually improved the communications and allow successful connections and transmissions. Is your iMac too new to run say Mavericks (I'm guessing Yosemite to similar to El Cap) for testing? It seems you've run through just about everything except sniffing the packet output.
