I need advice on dealing with leased lines. We've got a 2W line (15 km of direct wire, 3K Ohm electrical resistance) and want to run SLIP over this wire. I tried to use V.32 (T2500) but it simply fails establishing connection. PEP works fine (about 1700 bps effective rate with TCP) but have huge turnaround time - about 1sec (do not say me about micro-packets and S120, I know :-) Moreover I think T2500s for leased lines are a bit expensive. Thus I like to ask you for opinions on leased line modems (both 2W and 4W). Thanx in advance! Vadim Antonov DEMOS, Moscow, USSR

I would suggest v.32bis over leased line - and throughput will run up there in the 1700-1900 cps range :) -- Larry Snyder, NSTAR Public Access Unix 219-289-0287/317-251-7391 HST/PEP/V.32/v.32bis/v.42bis regional UUCP mapping coordinator {larry@nstar.rn.com, ..!uunet!nstar.rn.com!larry}
