Thanks Madison, with that I'll plunk down the $$ and get it on its way. A
chap there can't get his Winmodem to work at the same speed in Linux as it
does in Windows. Conextant want $20 US for new Linux drivers which may work
better.
I've suggested that a Hardware modem is the best way to go. Broadband there
is prohibitively expensive and even his dialup is $10 US a month for 4 hours.
$6 an hour over that.
Cheers
