Hi, everyone.
I'm thinking of making the leap from my old USR 144 to a new Hayes Accura
56. Assuming this is not another of these Winmodem deals (the specs from
my vendor are iffy), I don't see any compatibility problems. However, can
the FreeBSD PPP dialout program(s) fully exploit the new modem's speed?
I checked the docs @ freebsd.org, but didn't see anything really
pertaining to performance of higher-speed modems.
My school will not be up to 56K anytime soon (currently at 28.8K), but I
want to be able to connect with them at their maximum. Is there any
reason that I shouldn't go with this modem? I'm at 2.2.1-R.
Thanks for any advice you can give me! =)
Jeff
