[comp.dcom.modems] Looking for a modem.

aku@otax.tky.HUT.FI (Jaakko Siuko) (04/06/89)

I'm an Apple //c user here in Finland, and I'm looking for a
good EXTERNAL modem.  I have a good chance of getting one from
the States (= cheapest), so I would like to get some info and
suggestions.

Here are the basic stuff it should at least have:

  - 300/1200/2400 baud
  - European protocol: v20 (<-- not necessarily), v21, and
    v21 bis (CCITT norms)
  - Hayes compatible (AT command set)
  - cheap price

If you are suggesting a modem you own, I'd like to know things like...

   How satisfied are you with the modem?
   How much you paid for it?
   What features does it have?

Please do reply directly to my e-mail address as I do not read
news so often.  Thanks.

I presume you mean v21, v22 and v22 bis?

How cheap is cheap???
