- I'm trying to use a modem/cellphone combination to connect to
- several servers, and I'm getting mixed results. Using a Microcom
- FAST ES modem, restricted to a carrier of 7200, I can successfully
- connect to a LINUX based server with USR courier modems. However,
- the same setup connecting to a LINUX based server with USR Sportster
- modems fails 9 times out of 10. (the same connection works fine
- using normal telephone lines). Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?
- Do I need a special cellular modem?
