et,

they should only be used where they were built for...

and same really goes for intel.

i just finsished installing 2 new boxes w/ hsp56 modem for a friend.

when i saw them, i grined.
when i tried to set them up, i laughed.
and this was under windows. ;)

to one and all,

when it comes to modems, i always give this thought, external.

it is only practical way to go and they work.

cost a little more, well worth cost.

2 i used were 'passed along' because they 'do not work'.

with big wide grin, i have
 2 - motorola modem surfer externam modem
 2 - a-b-c-d e db9 switch box
 1 - a-b c db25 switch box

reason,
 i can connect 2 modems to 2 of 6 boxes at any one time
 i have 6 boxes that i do not worry about enought card slots
 if i loose a modem, i can flip a switch to get back up
 near hits have taken out external, have not reached inside yet
 all sites i service are external w/spare, easy for client
 [some friends do not listen]
 not 'plug and play', not 'wintel'
 works great with linux
 as unix was designed

just some thoughts.


tc,hago.
