Hi,

crazy thing is I dont have any manual or anything, just the Gateway.  From reading the 'sales' doc 
on the Orion site, this is a PRI/Q.SIg type.  But I dont have anything else besides that.  I dont 
even know how to get the Serial cable to work to configure the Gateway (through 
Minicom/Hyperterminal, there is a configuration on Orion, or so I'm told.)

Can you help?
