From the guestbook -   http://808hi.com/56k/guestbook.htm
"AWESOME site...."
"Your page on limiting connection speed put me on the right track..."
"When you are totally frustrated this is a great place to go see that
you aren't alone!!!"
"This site was very helpful to me, in finding out about my Rockwell
HCF 56k PCI modem. I located my modem, and the newest upgrade driver,
downloaded and installed it. It is now working great. Thanks."
"Excellent page. I am the administrator for a regional cable/dialup
ISP and this is one of the most informative pages on 56k I have ever
read. I have gleaned much more useful information from your pages in
30 minutes than I have ever received from 3Com (and that's having
direct access to one of their SE's). Thanks!"
