That's interesting. I have some GV modems that were originally X2. I've flash upgraded them to V90. There is a program called "Modem Magic" that you can read about here: http://macntosh.com/macara50.html It claims to provide improved ccl's that will dramatically improve 56K modem connections. Has anyone here tried this program? I'm very tempted to buy it if it performs as advertised. tafkar -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
