- Is there a way I can test a particular modem over a long distance line,
- without travelling long distance?
-
- The things I'd like to test are:
- - whether a particular modem is sensitive to noise unique to long
- distance connections.
- - whether a particular modem works better over one long distance
- carrier than another.
-
- The gist of this is that I'd like to know, per long distance carrier,
- how to set up a long distance loopback. Is this possible? Would I need
- to enlist the aid of another party somewhere?
-
- Thanks (much),
