-
- Decisions, decisions. I purchased an external Motorola Lifestyle 28.8
- last weekend. After the set-up, I gleefully attempted to try this new
- modem on my rig. Nothing...not even a squeal. After about an hour of
- trying different things (even though there is only one way for it to
- work) I took the darn thing back and bought a Sportster 33.6.
-
- I am now able to get a consistant 28.8 connection with downloads coming
- in at between 3.1k and 3.7k per second. I never did figure out the
- problem with the Motorola, but I did read about a problem that occurs in
- 1/10th of 1% of all Motorola's sold (I read it at this site
- http://web.aimnet.com/~jnavas/modem/faq.html) Just my luck to be in that
- group, I guess.
-
- Good luck with your modem choice.
