- Yes, as I've just found out - our newer ones go to 57.6K as well.
- Unfortunately, now I've found out that our Annex peaks at 38.4K anyway :-(
-
- Also - I've made a rather nasty discovery. The newer (smaller footprint too)
- versions, although they run to 57.6K DTE, they suffer from an additional
- 100ms or so latency for data transmitted through them. Using them with TCP/IP
- (via SLIP), my simple ping times went from 187ms or so up to 250ms.
-
- I haven't yet been able to get through to USR's tech support line to figure
- out why.
