It is a while since I have used mine, but I _think_ I plugged my Geocable
into my modem port & my reu into my cartridge port.

BTW there is a patch available that allows The Write Stuff to work with a
Geocable.

And you maybe just right too, I have not thought about that. Indeed, I had
even forgotten that there was an modem port. It has only been about 12 plus
years since I used a modem on a C64.

Thank you all for your help.

I will check out what plugs into where.

I suppose that the Geocable 2 would work then on a C128D, wouldn't then??
