} Thanks to the many kind folks for their replies. } I had about 5 replies in favor of USR Couriers, } and a couple for MultiTech, and several others as well. } } We have decided to spend a bunch of $$$ to do some tests to help us } decide. So what I'll do for now is to buy a handfull of various vendors' } modems and test them against each other (various permutations and } combinations). To speed things along, I'll probably post a bunch of } questions in the like of "This XXX modem won't talk to FreeBSD, .....??" } Oh, and if anyone would like to suggest what tests I should include, I would } certainly appreciate it. Any pitfalls, hazards and common mistakes to } watch out for too, thanks. } This sounds great! It would probably be helpful to find a few of the recent comparisons in the press to get you started. I think Byte did a (somewhat flawed) comparison, and I think there have been others. Richard
