Re: 56kbps PCMCIA modem recommendations?
1) verify your ISP first. Is he 56 Flex or 56 x2 (ibmNet is X2 for
instance)
2) Do not get any PCMCIA card which needs a proprietary RJ11 cord like
the Hayes 56 K Flex Accura
(if you losse the telephone cord, you are in trouble)
3) The best: X2: USR 56 (with the jack) (flex i don't know)
