-
- Since the modem would be diddling the data stream _after_ the software was
- building IP frames, the DSVD information would probably not be encapsulated in
- the IP datagrams and would not be delivered.
-
- DSVD modems would probably negotiate non-DSVD connections with non-DSVD modems
- such as those used by internet service providers.
