- I recently purchased a no-name 28.8K baud modem from Fry's for $100. It is
- built in the USA and uses the Rockwell chipset (same one as the ZOOM modem).
- About one third of the time it connects at 28.8K, usually it connects at
- 26.4K, and sometimes it connects as low as 21K or 19K. How do the name
- brands compare to this? Do they connect at 28.8K consistently?
-
- I have 3 more weeks to take it back if not satisfied. Feedback is
- appreciated.
