the older 56k's were banked and connected via a T1 but
everything we've used recently are all PRI. i was
trying to say that the connection was digital all the
way, be it BRI, PRI, T1, T3, OC etc...

you have server side v90's that connect to a channel
bank fxs circuit???
we have customers that sure could use those.

bri is a DIGITAL thing that can connect to a two port
server side v90. and can take two calls from two v90
user modems. and this it not an isdn b channel
digital end-to-end. we have customers that use this
for RAS to windows from a work at home employee using
a v90 to their home analog phone line.

David Jenkins (i hope my memory is at least close on
the name) has bragged here serveral times about using
xdps at 56k with his bri lines. I'm jealous!
I guess I need to check the d1232 that has the T1
card, that should pass 56k just as well from the xdp
port. I've had so many problems there that modems on
xdps was something I never got around to testing. The
customer has two T1's for internet data so there was
no reason to use xdp ports ;-)
I didn't mean to be critical of your comments, thought
the info might help those trying to use modems and the
xdps.
