I have a Motorola (actually it also has Universal Data Systems on the face plate) modem, model 208A/B. I'm only familiar with Hayes compatible stuff. This modem is obviously a little different. In addition to the phone and telephone jacks, there is a leased line jack. I have the following questions: - What is this modem commonly used for? - Does anybody know where I can get a users guide? - How do I talk to this modem? It doesn't seem to understand hayes compatable (AT) commands. - What baud rates can it handle? - Here's a good question; Is it worth anything? What? Thanks in advance for any help.

I have the following questions: A 208 is typically a leased lined or dial line *synchronous* modem. It is of zero use for dial-up asynchronous use. Ususally these modems have no built in dialer, instead a separate device is used to handle that end of the deal. > > - Here's a good question; Is it worth anything?
