- In this particular situation, I am pretty much forced into a
- V.35-compatible interface, because the other router we want to hook up with
- only has V.35 synch ports (a Cisco MGS). The Codex 2172 modems (32 to 64
- kbps) that I plan to get for this purpose are V.35 compatible, and will seem
- to do the job with the V.35 card from Sealevel (I hope!).
-
- Otherwise, I would almost certainly go with V.32bis/V.42bis on rs-232 at 57.6
- max.
