[comp.dcom.modems] Reviews of V.32

mwills@agora.rain.com (Mark Wills) (04/10/91)

I need some help with digging up some information:
First of all Communications programs for Unix/Xenix with scripting,
file transfers and logging capabilitys (non UUCP) I need to hear from users
of Profesional YAM and other products for your input on quality power and
ease of use.

On a related note I am evaluating  US robotics  Intel Multitech and Hayes
for their V.32(bis) modems.  Does anyone have any input? Here's what 
I have so far:

Intel 9600EX looks good for the price.
US Robotics courier V.32bis   only modem with V.32bis  (14400bps standard)
	    popular company good reputation.

Multitech V.32 - solid performer  remote configuration (important for me)

Hayes Ultra 9600 - solid modem but pricey


Are there others I should consider?  I will be installing 100's of these
throughout the country.    Thanks for your help.

Please respond  via mail to mwills@agora.rain.com or in this subject.

The Multitech v-32 comes in two models. Please be aware of the differences.  

MT932ea V-32 mnp 3-5  List Price $869 2-1 data compression 

MT932eab V-32 mnp 3-5 V-42bis List Price $899 4-1 data compression

I highly recommend the extra money for the bottom unit as it is much more
flexible in supported standards.
