I have gotten so far 3 replies on the topic of High speed modems. Thank you! I shall be posting complete messages which I received to the NET next Wednesday. All of the replies were very good, however no one mentioned how FAST the high-speed modems transfer data over a computer. All one must do is supply me with the following data: How long does it take a 24oo baud modem to transfer a whole Atari ST seven-hundred and twenty-K diskette over the modem? Then, I can convert this data for the other modems and determine which speed is for me. I want to insure that I get a modem which is neither too slow, nor too much for my needs. I have seen BBSes in my area [San Jose, CA] supporting baud rates close to 2OK! [Ninteen.2K to be exact]. THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH! Metalist@cup.portal.com
