Re: [TCLUG:401] 56k modem



well.. I perfer USR/3com modems, and also multi-tech.. ANY modem will work
with linux, except the "winmodem" kind.. my suggestion is a Sportster v.90
or a courier v.everything.. I also suggest that you go to this web page

http://www.interprise.com/dsl

it's new, it's fast, it is way more cool than a modem.  I know one person
who has a RADSL line intalled, and running.. he loves it
