- AS> Hello, I have a problem will my BOCA 14.4 Modem and PMCOMM 2.01.
- AS> The problem is that when I do downloading, it bogs down my
- AS> system and it slows down to about 330 cps when it can do over
- AS> 1200cps. Is there anyway to get the both speeds back up? A form
- AS> of buffering?
-
- Hmm. Using the INTEL Model 400 Internal here. 1600-1700cps typical.
- The INTEL has a built in coprocssor and 512k buffer. No bogging here.
- Hell. I cant tell I'm downloading in the background!
- $375.00 Mail order. Great Modem.
-
- On your BOCA. If memory serves me correctly the BOCA (early models)
- internal has no 16550 UART (buffered UART). This is a problem.
-
- And. Of course NO external modems have such. IF you have
- a external than you'll most definatly need a comm card
- with a 16550 UART (buffered).
-
- More help can be obtained on the FIDO High Speed Modem echo.
