Practical Peripherals has been one of better modems to connect to our
system. (At least, we have fewer problems come to us). The &C1&d2 is
essential in that modem. Our modems are v.42 bis compliant now, but we are
still testing that protocol and have not enabled it in some areas.
As for HST, the new standard (v.32 and 42) was adopted by most larger modem
manufacturers (including USR with their Dual Standard) and because of the
large expenditure in adding 9600 lines, we decided to use what will work in
the future. But, I dont make those decisions….
PS-Someone let me know if they "see" the proposed drop in 500 prices.
