The compatibility issue for 28.8 modems is there. Not all 28.8 modems
work with each other. But, the 14.4 modems do.
I suggest the Sportster 14.4, which is a great little modem and easy to
connect. You might look at the Sportster 28.8, but it is more than $150.

It depends on what kind of usage you are looking for from the modem.Quote:> We have a Sun Spare 10 workstation and running solaris 2.3. We want

For dial-up (getty) terminal mode and constant PPP/SLIP link, you
need a very robust, crash-free modem. USRobotics Courier (NOT
Sporster), Telebit, and ZyXEL meet your requirement.
For dial-out (cu or tip), I guess any "al cheapo" modem will do
just fine. Yes, Sporster can do well for dial-out. Other modems which
fit into this category are Supra, Zoom, PSI, etc.
Trust me. I've been wrestling with modems for 5 years.

-i- think highly of my at&t dataport. if you can wait a few months
[it's going through beta right now], you can get a v.34 dataport for a
street price of ~$200 +-, much less than a comsphere. i'm waiting!
