Howdy, CaT:
You are probably right.
Did you check d/l'ing a 'text' file where the modems can do
their best compression? Then the compressed data transfers
between the modems and the expanded data on the serial ports.
Then serial data needs to be faster than modem data for
maximum throughput.
?
All my modems are internal, so I cannot do an analysis.
