As this is a Power Computing Forum, I know of no internal modem that
works with such. If there is such, "Put the Word On ME"! Anything that
would reduce the number of cables and clutter. 

I had a 28.8 US Robotics external modem. When the V-90 standard was made
universal, Installing the US Robotics Firmware update, put it out of
commission. Mailed it back and received one back by return mail . Very
Happy. 

Then 3 Com bought them out. When I bought a US Robotics 56K external
modem, there were many problems getting it to latchup on line properly
(OS 8.1). Much of my time wasted talking with PC dweebs at 3 Com. Threw
the US Robotics into the corner, bought a Global Village and never
looked back. 

After the US Robotics "Universal EXTENSION" came out, The US Robotics
external modem worked on my obsolete units, then passed to gran
chillins. As to dropping the connection in mid down load ... That was
AOL @#$%^&.   

Who bought out Palm? I've done my own trouble shooting for the last
couple of years and trashed the 3Com Bookmark. RHB
