- I noticed after visiting the Rockwell homepage that Rockwell calls
- their latest firmware for their 28.8 chipset, version 1.400. This is
- the same version number that Cardinal uses for their latest flash
- update.
-
- Does Cardinal simply ship new firmware when supplied by Rockwell? Or
- do they write their own? What about Supra's flash upgrade? Is this
- also version 1.400?
-
- If its true that all Rockwell based modems also use identical firmware
- in addition to identical chipsets, why not just buy the cheapest of
- these, assuming I don't want to spend the bucks for the Sportster?
-
- All comments welcome...
