- After much pain, I have my Xircom CEM28 working on a TI Extensa
- 560CD with Windows 95. I seem to get 28000 and 26400
- connections. Here are 3 recommendations:
-
- * Use Windows 95's own dialer. Many others are incompatible.
- * Get the latest (v3.78) flash upgrade.
- * Get the latest Xircom drivers.
