mentioned something about re: equinox multimodem ?
hello sir ian,
| The only disadvantages of this particular design:
| - if a modem fails, it's gone, you probably have to replace the entire
| card.
yep. although the use of these lines are not that mission critical,
it still worries me. what could be the chances of this happening,
especially for this brand? are there alternatives? are they better?
dealers?
| - in my experience, if one modem suddenly stops responding, you need to
| power down the unit just to reset that particular modem.
when a modem stops responding, what usually causes it? is it the
hardware or does it have something to do with the mgetty/radius
or a combination of both?
| - It's also much more expensive if you total the price of the unit and
| compare it with the prices of the items if you get them separately
| but the 'clean' setup of just having to plug in the phone clips to the
| back of the modem, eliminating the clutter of serial cables + modem +
| adaptors + multi-serial card makes it worth it even though.
oh yes. that's why i opted for this kahit ako yung resident cheapo
sa company. *:)
