Hanging where? Which line? You'd get a lot more helpful answers if you provided details about what your program is doing rather than vague statements like "it doesn't work" or "it's hanging". You also need to post the actual code that you're running. Since it didn't used to hang and it does now, you have presumably changed it. We don't have any way of knowing what code you're running, so how can we tell you what's wrong? > Does that mean that the write function is not making > it through, thus there is nothing to return? I don't know what "the write function is not making it through" means. Like I said before: are you _sure_ you don't need to terminate the commands with a carriage return? Do you understand that question? After you type a command in Hyperterminal do you have to press [Enter] in order to get a response? If so, you need to append a carriage-return to the end of the command strings you're writing like this: 'command parameter1 parameter2\r' You might want to read through this: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html -- Grant -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
