Betty, We use a PPI 9600 here at CIS Technical Support to test numbers etc. I am impressed also. A good buy also…. Thanks for putting our "Standard" situation into words so well. Although we'd like to, we cant justify buying USR HST modems that will dwindle in use as v.32 becomes more popular. I just read an Article in PC Sources (another from Ziff I believe) about purchasing a modem that described the differences well. It also stated v.32 bis is now THE standard for 9600 and you should not buy anything else. (Like the Misleading Hayes V-Series, of which most do NOT have v.32 capability.) FEB issue pg 187
