- That pretty much sums up our experiences with Multi-Tech brand modems as
- well. My only precautionary note is to use Multi-Tech's commercial
- grade "BA" and "BL" models for any commercial/industrial applications.
- We use their "ZDX" line for employee telecommuting applications, and
- they work quite well. We use their "BR" and "MR" rackmounts along with
- a scattering of "BA" and "BL" models for our central site host
- applications.
-
- The MT2834ZDX, like all the sub-$250 class modems are designed and
- intended for consumer-grade applications.

- If you have trouble understanding the differentiation here, try to think
- of it in terms of using a John Deere lawn & garden tractor to plow 1500
- acres.
