Hi, Due to a large number of requests to post some info on the information I requested on 2400 baud modems and which was the best, I decided to post some results. I received approximately 20 responses to my initial request. Of these, the overwhelming winner was USRobotics 2400 baud modem. I got 12 votes for it (I am including both the 2400 and the 2400e <mnp-error-checking> versions). The rest of the messages were for this modem and that. One thing I did have recommended was to look into Computer Shopper to find some inexpensive modems. If there is interest, I will divulge the fruits of that search (basically I found that the USR modem was only at most $100 more or so expensive than the discount ones advertised there). I don't have any info on USRobotics, but I imagine they have a 1-800 number which you could find the number for by calling 1-800-555-1212 (forgive my laziness, in not doing so myself). DISCLAIMER: I am in no way connected to USRobotics, Computer Shopper (or their publisher), or AT&T (the 1-800 reference). There, now I feel all better... :-) "No matter where you go, there you are."
